MEMORANDUM*

2
We review the denial of Campos' motion to sever for abuse of discretion.  See United States v. Cuozzo, 962 F.2d 945, 949 (9th Cir.1992).  Cortez lacked credibility and offered his testimony only "if [his] trial were to proceed first before the trial of Campos."   The court did not abuse its discretion.
