Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 116 F.3d 1484 (8th Cir. 1997) Submitted June 10, 1997. Filed July 8, 1997

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri.

Before BOWMAN, GIBSON and ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


After the district court1  denied his motion to suppress evidence, Phillip S. Douglass pleaded guilty to one count of possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a) (1) and (b) (1) (B), and was sentenced to forty-eight months imprisonment, followed by a five year period of supervised release. Douglass preserved his right to appeal the adverse ruling on his motion to suppress. After carefully reviewing the record before us and the parties' briefs, we affirm the district court's decision. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
