United States of America, Plaintiff-appellee, v. Sherry Crawford, Defendant-appellant, 931 F.2d 55 (4th Cir. 1991)

Sherry Crawford pled guilty to conspiracy to distribute marijuana in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846. She appeals the sentence she received and we affirm.

Crawford claims that the district court should have awarded her two-level reductions in her offense level for acceptance of responsibility and for having a minimum role in the offense. These matters were not raised in the district court and are therefore waived. United States v. Tibesar, 894 F.2d 317, 319 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 59 U.S.L.W. 3245 (U.S.1990); United States v. Holguin, 868 F.2d 201, 205 (7th Cir.), cert. denied, 58 U.S.L.W. 3214 (U.S.1989).

Crawford also argues that the district court should have departed below the guideline range and imposed a sentence of probation. This Court has previously decided that a failure to depart is not appealable. United States v. Bayerle, 898 F.2d 28 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 59 U.S.L.W. 3244 (U.S.1990).

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. Crawford's motion to have this appeal decided on the briefs without oral argument is granted. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
