No. 95-16649.
United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
Argued and Submitted May 5, 1997.Decided June 5, 1997.

1
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, Nos.  CV-95-003430ACM, CR-( )-297-ACM;  C.A. Muecke, District Judge, Presiding

Before:  BROWNING, and SCHROEDER, Circuit Judges and RESTANI, Judge*

MEMORANDUM**


4
Ernesto Manuel Fonseca-Caro appeals the denial of his second motion for relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255.  We affirm.1


5
Fonseca-Caro's ninety-day sentence plainly brings him within the dictate of section 4A1.1(b) that a defendant receive two points "for each prior sentence of imprisonment of at least sixty days."   Whether his prior offense qualifies as a crime of violence is irrelevant.


6
The cases cited by Fonseca-Caro in support of his contention that conspiracy offenses "cannot be enhanced by other prior convictions" hold only that drug conspiracies cannot be counted in deciding whether an individual is a career offender.  Fonseca-Caro was not sentenced as a career offender.2


7
The conspiracy for which FonsecaCaro was convicted was a drug trafficking crime.  Section 924(c)(2) defines "drug trafficking crime" as "any felony punishable under the Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 801 et seq.)."   Fonseca-Caro's conspiracy was a felony punishable under the Controlled Substances Act.  See 21 U.S.C. § 841 (criminalizing the possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute);  21 U.S.C. § 846 (criminalizing conspiracy to commit any offense under the Controlled Substances Act).


8
We reject Fonseca-Caro's argument that effective counsel would have raised the foregoing claims.  See Jones v. Barnes, 463 U.S. 745, 751-54 (1983) (appellate counsel need not raise every nonfrivolous issue requested by defendant).


9
AFFIRMED.

 The Honorable Jane A. Restani, Judge, United States Court of International Trade, sitting by designation


**
 This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir.  R. 36-3


1
 We address Fonseca-Caro's contention that the Pinkerton doctrine is not applicable under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) after Bailey v. United States, 116 S.Ct. 501 (1995), in an opinion published this date


2
 Even if he had been, we would deny this claim.  We have rejected the cases Fonseca-Caro cites.  See United States v. Heim, 15 F.3d 830, 831-32 (9th Cir.1994)
