Description
LEWIS R. MORGAN, Circuit Judge: After a trial to a jury, appellant was convicted of making a false statement in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1001 (1966)1 and was sentenced to imprisonment for three months, followed by two years probation. Krause, the defendant below, appeals, alleging that his unsworn responses to questions propounded by a National Labor Relations Board Hearing Officer at a formal hearing did not constitute a ""statement"" within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. § 1001. He also claims that the trial court incorrectly refused to allow a former hearing officer to testify to the weight generally given by regional directors to unsworn statements contained in a transcript of an NLRB hearing. For the reasons enunciated below we affirm the appellant's conviction.
