Case No.: 16-4120; 19-2379

Officials: BAUER, FLAUM, and KANNE, Circuit Judges.

Focus: Abuse of Discretion – Admittance of Evidence

Marcus Harrington brings this appeal requesting us to reverse the district court’s admitting evidence of his firearm, prohibiting him from arguing racial animus in closing arguments, failing to sanction the Appellees, and denying his motion for post‐trial discovery. Because the district court did not abuse its discretion or commit legal error, we affirm.
