          Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Eastern District of Texas
                     USDC No. 1:01-CR-34-ALL
                       --------------------

Before KING, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Donnies Ray Burnett (Burnett) appeals the sentence imposed

following his guilty-plea conviction for distributing crack

cocaine within 1000 feet of a school in June 2000.     Burnett

argues that the district court erred in including as relevant

except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

                               -2-

offenses were sufficiently connected to warrant a conclusion that

they were part of the same course of conduct.     See United States

v. Ocana, 204 F.3d 585, 589-90 (5th Cir. 2000).

     AFFIRMED.
