KATHY STAMPS,

              Defendant - Appellant.



                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Central District of California
                   Christina A. Snyder, District Judge, Presiding

                     Argued and Submitted November 6, 2012
                              Pasadena, California


Before:       KOZINSKI, Chief Judge, REINHARDT and THOMAS, Circuit
              Judges.

       Kathy Stamps argues that we must vacate her conviction for three counts of

mail fraud because the prosecutor failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that

the United States had a property interest in the money she stole. But the prosecutor

wasn’t required to prove ownership of the funds as an element of the offense. See

United States v. Crawford, 239 F.3d 1086, 1092–93 & n.6 (9th Cir. 2001). We

therefore conclude that the government presented sufficient evidence to support the

conviction.


      AFFIRMED.
