Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. 4:05-CR-25-ALL
--------------------
Before GARZA, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Armando Venegas-
Mendoza raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States v.
Slaughter, 238 F.3d 580, 582-84 (5th Cir. 2000), which held that
Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 (2000), did not render 21
U.S.C. § 841 unconstitutional on its face. The Government’s
motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, and the judgment of the
district court is AFFIRMED.
