UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
RONALD LEE QUALLS,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeals from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
No. 6:04-CR-34
No. 6:04-CR-90-4
--------------------
Before SMITH, WIENER, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Ronald Qualls was convicted of one charge of possession of a
material used to manufacture methamphetamine and one charge of con-
spiracy to manufacture methamphetamine. Qualls challenges his sen-
tence, arguing that the district court’s drug quantity calculations

were erroneous and that the court erred by sentencing him based on
those calculations. Qualls has not shown that the factual findings
concerning drug quantity are clearly erroneous. See United States
v. Maseratti, 1 F.3d 330, 340 (5th Cir. 1993); see also United
States v. Charon, 442 F.3d 881, 887 (5th Cir.), cert. denied,
127 S. Ct. 260 (2006). The judgment is AFFIRMED.
