PER CURIAM:

     Marlon M. Zialcita appeals from a 136-month sentence imposed

following his guilty plea to conspiracy to launder money, 18

U.S.C.A. § 1956 (West Supp. 2000).       Zialcita seeks to avoid his

waiver of his right to appeal by framing his challenge to the

district court’s denial of an acceptance of responsibility adjust-

ment as a constitutional claim.       We have reviewed the record and

find that the district court’s decision that Zialcita did not

accept responsibility, based on a letter he sent to the court and

his delay in signing a consent to forfeiture, did not implicate any

constitutional concerns.   See United States v. Broughton-Jones, 71

F.3d 1143, 1146-47 (4th Cir. 1995).       Accordingly, his waiver of

appeal rights is enforceable.

     We dismiss the appeal based on Zialcita’s valid waiver of

appellate review. We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.




                                                            DISMISSED
