PER CURIAM.
Kelly Preston and Thomas J. Barnes were both convicted following a jury trial
on three counts of mail fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1341 and 18 U.S.C. § 2. The
district court2 sentenced Preston to twenty-four months on each count, to be served
concurrently and Barnes to thirty-three months on each count, to be served
concurrently. On appeal, they challenge both their convictions and sentences on
various grounds. Having carefully reviewed the parties' briefs and the extensive record,
we find no error of fact or law that would require reversal. We therefore affirm without
further discussion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
