JAIME ARANDA-LUGO, also

Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. EP-99-CR-420-ALL-H
--------------------
June 15, 2000
Before JOLLY, DAVIS, and DUHÉ, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Jaime Aranda-Lugo appeals from his conviction for illegal
reentry into the United States after deportation in violation of
8 U.S.C. § 1326. He argues that the district court erred by
admitting evidence that he had been deported on three prior
occasions. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Evidence of Aranda-Lugo’s repeated prior re-entries and
deportations tended to prove that Aranda-Lugo intended to enter
the United States on the instant occasion. See United States v.
Osum, 943 F.2d 1394, 1404 (5th Cir. 1991). The district court

did not abuse its discretion by admitting evidence of Aranda-
Lugo’s prior deportations. Accordingly, the judgment of the
district court is AFFIRMED.
AFFIRMED.
