Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 70 F.3d 1276 (8th Cir. 1995) Submitted: Nov. 16, 1995. Filed: Nov. 30, 1995

Before FAGG, LOKEN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


Steven Nicolas appeals the drug-related sentence imposed by the district court under the sentencing guidelines. Nicolas's arguments are clearly foreclosed by this court's recent decisions in United States v. Jackson, Nos. 94-3381 & 94-3639, 1995 WL 600885, at * 7 (8th Cir. Oct. 13, 1995), and United States v. Jackson, 64 F.3d 1213, 1219-20 (8th Cir. 1995). Because the controlling law is clear, an extended discussion of Nicolas's arguments would serve no useful purpose. We thus affirm Nicolas's sentence. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
