                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Central District of California
                    Terry J. Hatter, Jr., District Judge, Presiding

was coerced into admitting the violations by the district court’s implied threat of a

longer sentence if she put the government to its burden. This argument fails. The

record reflects that, before the court made the challenged statements, Zie was

prepared to admit to violating the terms of her supervised release by testing

positive. Thus, Zie has not shown that her admission resulted from coercion.

      AFFIRMED.
