Abstract
--------
The bottom-charm meson B_c is predicted by the Standard Model with an expected
mass in the range of 6.2 to 6.3 GeV/c^2.  We report on the search for the B_c
meson in the inclusive decay channel J/Psi + mu + X in p-pbar colisions at
sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV for an integrated luminosity of 110 pb^-1.  An upper limit of
the cross-section times branching ratio of B_c -> J/Psi + mu + X relative to
B_u -> J/Psi K as a function of assumed B_c lifetime is presented.
