Carolyn Watkins Marsh appeals her conviction at a bench trial of misdemeanor conversion of government property in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 641 and sentence of 2 years of probation and $750 restitution.

Second, counsel notes four evidentiary objections overruled by the district court. We will reverse only if we find an abuse of discretion that materially affected the verdict. United States v. Beltran, 165 F.3d 1266, 1269 (9th Cir.), cert, denied, 528 U.S. 881 , 120…
