 Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 892 F.2d 84 (9th Cir. 1989) Submitted Dec. 8, 1989. *Decided Dec. 27, 1989

Before BROWNING, BOOCHEVER and KOZINSKI, Circuit Judges.

MEMORANDUM** 

The district court found that Baez brought three kilograms of cocaine to the arrest site, intending to exchange the cocaine for a large sum of money. Consequently, the court found that Baez was not a minor participant in this conspiracy to possess a controlled substance with intent to distribute. See Sentencing Guidelines § 3B1.2(b). These findings are not clearly erroneous. See United States v Sanchez-Lopez, 879 F2d 541, 557 (9th Cir 1989).

AFFIRMED.
