UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,

MANUEL MAYA-CORTEZ,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. L-01-CR-155-ALL
--------------------
April 11, 2002
Before SMITH, DeMOSS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Manuel Maya-Cortez (“Maya”) appeals his guilty-plea
conviction of being found in the United States after deportation,
a violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. He argues that his indictment is
deficient because it does not allege general intent. Maya
concedes that his contention is foreclosed by United States v.
Guzman-Ocampo, 236 F.3d 233 (5th Cir. 2000), cert. denied, 533
U.S. 953 (2001). See also United States v. Berrios-Centeno, 250
F.3d 294, 297 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 122 S. Ct. 288 (2001).
Maya raises the issue only to preserve it for review by the
Supreme Court.
