UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
JAMES CHARLIE STANLEY, JR.,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Louisiana
USDC No. 98-CR-106-1
--------------------
January 4, 2000
Before DAVIS, EMILIO M. GARZA, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
James Charlie Stanley, Jr., appeals his jury-trial
conviction for interference with commerce by robbery. Stanley
makes interrelated arguments that the evidence was insufficient
to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the robbery affected
interstate commerce and that the Hobbs Act is unconstitutional as
applied to his case because the robbery had only a de minimis
effect upon interstate commerce. Stanley’s arguments are
foreclosed by prior decisions of this court. See United States
v. Jennings, F.3d , 1999 WL 1021244 at *5 (5th Cir. Nov.
