No. 95-2527.
United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
Oct. 12, 1995.

Before McMILLIAN, BOWMAN, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.


1
Dorian Scott appeals his conviction from the district court1 following his plea of guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. Sec. 922(g).  Relying on United States v. Lopez, 115 S.Ct. 1624 (1995), Scott argues that Congress lacks authority to make a felon's possession of a weapon a federal crime.  Scott's argument, however, is foreclosed by our recent holding in United States v. Rankin, No. 95-1406, 1995 WL 445716 (8th Cir.  July 28, 1995) (per curiam).


2
Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
