MEMORANDUM*


2
John Angelo Bravo appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to vacate his conviction for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute cocaine, 21 U.S.C. § 846.  Bravo contends that his criminal conviction following the civil forfeiture of his residence violates the constitutional prohibition against double jeopardy.


3
The Supreme Court has recently reversed the case on which Bravo relies-- United States v. $405,089.23 U.S. Currency, 33 F.3d 1210 (9th Cir.1994), cert. granted, 116 S.Ct. 762 (1996).  In  United States v. Ursery, 1996 WL 340815 (1996), the Court held that "in rem civil forfeitures are neither 'punishment' nor criminal for purposes of the Double Jeopardy Clause."   Id. at * 16.   Accordingly, we reject Bravo's double jeopardy claim.

AFFIRMED.
