Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of Georgia

________________________

(August 22, 2018) Before WILSON and NEWSOM, Circuit Judges, and WRIGHT, ∗ District Judge. PER CURIAM: ∗ Honorable Susan Webber Wright, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas, sitting by designation.

Case: 16-15683 Date Filed: 08/22/2018 Page: 2 of 2

Samuel Kwushue appeals his convictions, 51-month sentence of imprisonment, and restitution of $5,249,958.57 for eight counts of wire fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343. He argues that the district court erred in determining the loss amount and restitution for his food-stamp fraud scheme, applying a four-level enhancement for an aggravating role in the offense, and finding a proper factual basis that he used interstate wires to perpetrate a scheme to defraud. After a careful review of the briefs and the record, and having the benefit of oral argument, we find no error.

AFFIRMED.
