Conference Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
JOSE ANTONIO REGALADO-GARCIA,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 7:05-CR-1-ALL
--------------------
Before STEWART, DENNIS, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Jose Antonio Regalado-Garcia (Regalado) appeals his
conviction and sentence following his guilty plea to possession
of marijuana with intent to distribute. Regalado correctly notes
that his argument, made for the first time on appeal, that the
district court lacked jurisdiction to convict and sentence him
because 21 U.S.C. § 841 is unconstitutional under Apprendi v. New
Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 (2000), is foreclosed by United States v.
Slaughter, 238 F.3d 580, 582 (5th Cir. 2000). The judgment of
the district court is AFFIRMED.
