                   Appeals from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 7:11-CR-599-1


Before DAVIS, DENNIS, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Raaf Atrach raises an
argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United States v. Betancourt, 586 F.3d
303, 308-09 (5th Cir. 2009), which held that knowledge of drug type and quantity
is not an element of the offense under 21 U.S.C. § 841. The appellant’s motion
for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is
AFFIRMED.



       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
