Task: songer_othjury

What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals. The issue is: "Did the court conclude that the jury composition or selection was invalid or that the jury was biased or tampered with?" Answer the question based on the directionality of the appeals court decision. If the court discussed the issue in its opinion and answered the related question in the affirmative, answer "Yes". If the issue was discussed and the opinion answered the question negatively, answer "No". If the opinion considered the question but gave a mixed answer, supporting the respondent in part and supporting the appellant in part, answer "Mixed answer". If the opinion does not discuss the issue, or notes that a particular issue was raised by one of the litigants but the court dismissed the issue as frivolous or trivial or not worthy of discussion for some other reason, answer "Issue not discussed". If the opinion considered the question but gave a "mixed" answer, supporting the respondent in part and supporting the appellant in part (or if two issues treated separately by the court both fell within the area covered by one question and the court answered one question affirmatively and one negatively), answer "Mixed answer". If the opinion either did not consider or discuss the issue at all or if the opinion indicates that this issue was not worthy of consideration by the court of appeals even though it was discussed by the lower court or was raised in one of the briefs, answer "Issue not discussed". If the court answered the question in the affirmative, but the error articulated by the court was judged to be harmless, answer "Yes, but error was harmless". 

PER CURIAM:
Appellant Gregory Matthews appeals from his conviction of a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1542, making false statements in an application for a passport.
Matthews contends that the district court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence found pursuant to a search warrant. He claims that the affidavit in support of the warrant was insufficient on its face because the information contained therein was stale.
The search warrant issued on July 9, 1976 included an affidavit describing, among other things, surveillance of the defendant and of his home which was sufficient to establish probable cause linking him to a narcotics transaction. Matthews argues, however, that this information was stale because, through a clerical error, the warrant stated that the surveillance took place on June 8, 1976 although it actually occurred on July 8, 1976. In determining the sufficiency of an affidavit supporting a warrant the courts do not inquire beyond what is on the face of the document, Aguilar v. Texas, 378 U.S. 108, 109 n. 1, 84 S.Ct. 1509, 12 L.Ed.2d 723 (1964). In this case, however, even if the surveillance had actually taken place on June 8 as stated in the warrant, the information would not be stale as to the documents, records, and other items for which the search was to be conducted. Considering the nature of the items named in the warrant, it was reasonable to expect they would remain in the defendant’s possession and on his premises for some period of time, at least for a month. Andresen v. Maryland, 427 U.S. 463, 478-79 n. 9, 96 S.Ct. 2737, 49 L.Ed.2d 627 (1976).
Matthews also contends that the indictment was too vague. We find no merit in this argument. The indictment was cast in the language of the applicable statute and was adequate to permit the court to determine whether the charges were sufficient, to inform the defendant of the nature of the charges against him so that he could prepare his defense, and to allow the defendant to determine whether he was being exposed to double jeopardy. See Russell v. United States, 369 U.S. 749, 763-64, 8 L.Ed.2d 240 (1962); United States v. Anderson, 532 F.2d 1218, 1222 (9th Cir.), cert. denied, 429 U.S. 839, 97 S.Ct. 111, 50 L.Ed.2d 107 (1976).
The conviction is AFFIRMED.
