[fn***] This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided bv 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
Vincent Malicek appeals his conviction for armed robbery. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. ยง 1291, and we affirm.
Evidence of Malicek's unemployment, poor financial circumstances, child support arrearages, and failure to pay for drug testing was properly admitted to show a sudden and unexplained change in Malicek's financial circumstances in the days surrounding the robbery. United States v.Mitchell, 172 F.3d 1104, 1109 (9th Cir. 1999); see alsoUnited States v. Jackson, 882 F.2d 1444, 1450 (9th Cir. 1989).
AFFIRMED.
