Summary Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
CARLOS L. CASEY,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 3:02-CR-138-1-D
--------------------
Before DAVIS, WIENER and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Carlos L. Casey appeals following his guilty-plea conviction
for being a felon in possession of a firearm, a violation of 18
U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and his sentence of 100 months in prison and
a three-year term of supervised release. Casey argues that the
district court clearly erred by finding that he knowingly
possessed the crack cocaine that officers found in the car that
he was driving and by overruling his objection to the presentence
report. Casey has not shown that the district court’s findings

on this issue are “not plausible in light of the record taken as
a whole.” United States v. Alaniz-Alaniz, 38 F.3d 788, 790 n.3
(5th Cir. 1994). He thus has not shown that the district court
clearly erred. Because Casey has shown no error in the judgment
of the district court, that judgment is AFFIRMED.
