Before BRISCOE, McKAY, and HARTZ, Circuit Judges.

Dennis B. Evanson appeals from his conviction in the United States District Court for the District of Utah on counts of conspiracy to commit tax fraud, tax evasion, and aiding and assisting in the preparation of false income-tax returns. Before Mr. Evanson’s trial the court disqualified his retained counsel. His sole contention on appeal is that the disqualification deprived him of his right to counsel under the Sixth Amendment. Exercising jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, we affirm. The district court reasonably assessed the problems that could arise from counsel’s continued representation of Mr. Evanson.
