Before TUTTLE, Chief Judge, and BROWN and BELL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

1
This appeal from an order denying a motion for new trial on the basis of newly discovered evidence presents only the question whether the trial court abused its discretion in refusing to grant a motion for new trial.

2
It appearing that the new evidence presented relates only to a collateral matter, we conclude that it was not an abuse of the discretion of the trial court to deny the motion.

3
The judgment is affirmed.
