Before WILKINSON, KEENAN, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
William Terrence Cross, Appellant Pro Se. Laura Pellatiro
Tayman, Assistant United States Attorney, Newport News,
Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
William Cross seeks to appeal his conviction for
tampering with a witness and retaliation against a witness.
Cross was sentenced in 2003 and received a fourteen-year
sentence. This court summarily affirmed Cross’s convictions and
remanded for resentencing after the Government cross-appealed.
United States v. Cross, 371 F.3d 176 (4th Cir. 2004). The court
affirmed the sentence imposed at resentencing. United States v.
Cross, No. 04-5030, 2005 WL 3452041 (4th Cir. Dec. 16, 2005)
(unpublished). In January 2013, Cross filed another notice of
appeal of the criminal judgment, specifically challenging a
pre-trial order denying Cross’s motion to dismiss for lack of
jurisdiction. However, because we have previously affirmed this
criminal judgment, we dismiss the appeal as duplicative and
untimely. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
