Decided:
PER CURIAM:
Jose Amador Ochoa-Puga pled guilty to conspiracy to
distribute and possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine,
in violation of 21 U.S.C. 846 (2000), and the district court
sentenced him to a 180-month term of imprisonment.
Ochoa-Puga
appeals his conviction on the ground that he did not understand the
consequences of his guilty plea and thus his plea was unknowing and
involuntary.
