• United States v. Herman, 589 F.2d 1191 (3d Cir. 1978)
  …a witness, for the purpose of attacking or supporting his credibility, other than conviction of crime as provided in rule 609, may not be proved by extrinsic evidence.” E. g., United States v. Edwards, 549 F. 2d 362, 367-68 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 434 U.S. 828, 98 S.Ct. 107, 54 L.Ed.2d 87 (1977); United States v. Cluck, 544 F. 2d 195, 196 (5th Cir. 1976); United States v.

• United States v. Carmine Persico, 832 F.2d 705 (2d Cir. 1987)
  …on against compensation based on the quality of the informant’s work. But see United States v. Edwards, 549 F. 2d 362, 365 (5th Cir.) (statement that reward depended on “final results” not sufficient to mandate exclusion of testimony), cert. denied, 434 U.S. 828, 98 S.Ct. 107, 54 L.Ed.2d 87 (1977).
