UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Plaintiff - Appellee
v.
GLEN HARVICK
Defendant - Appellant
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:04-CR-23-4-Y
--------------------
Before KING, WIENER, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Glen Harvick appeals his conviction for importation of
methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and aiding and abetting,
contending that the district court should have granted his motion
to suppress. Relying on Wilson v. Arkansas, 514 U.S. 927, 931
(1995), and 18 U.S.C. § 3109, Harvick argued in the district
court that the officers did not comply with the “knock and
announce” rule before entering the apartment where the MDMA was
found.

No. 05-10401
-2-
On appeal, Harvick challenges only the district court’s
factual determination that the officers did not conduct an
unannounced entry in violation of the Fourth Amendment. After
reviewing the transcript of the suppression hearing, we conclude
that the district court did not commit clear error in finding
that the entry did not violate the “knock and announce”
principle. See United States v. Santiago, 310 F.3d 336, 340 (5th
Cir. 2002).
AFFIRMED.
