UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
DARRELL BYRD,
Defendant-Appellee.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:00-CR-177-1
--------------------
February 20, 2002
Before JOLLY, JONES, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Darrell Byrd appeals his sentence for distribution of crack
cocaine. Byrd contends that the district court erred by
adjusting his offense level for possession of a dangerous weapon
pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(b)(1). The temporal and spatial
relationship between the weapon, the drug-trafficking activity,
and Byrd was sufficient to justify the weapons-possession
adjustment in his case. See United States v. Eastland, 989 F.2d
760, 770 (5th Cir. 1993).
