v.

MIGUEL SAUCILLO,

                                                  Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 2:11-CR-73-1


Before KING, HAYNES, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Miguel Saucillo presents
arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Betancourt, 586
F.3d 303, 308-09 (5th Cir. 2009), which reaffirmed that knowledge of drug type
and quantity is not an element of the offense under 21 U.S.C. § 841. The
appellant’s motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of
the district court is AFFIRMED.



       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
