OPINION

Thomas Berry pleaded guilty to one count of possession with intent to distribute 486.2 grams of crack, in violation of 21 U.S.C.A. § 841(a)(1) (West 1999). The district court sentenced Berry to 168 months in prison. Berry timely appealed, arguing that § 841 is unconstitutional. Berry’s argument is that Congress intended the penalty provisions of 21 U.S.C.A. § 841(b) to be sentencing factors, so that a judge could determine the drug quantities attributable to a defendant by a preponderance of the evidence. Berry notes the holding in Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), that, other than the fact of a prior conviction, any fact that increases the penalty for a crime beyond the statutory maximum must be determined by the factfinder beyond a reasonable doubt. Based on Apprendi, Berry contends that § 841 has been void and therefore unconstitutional since its enactment with respect both to the acts deemed unlawful and to the penalties applicable to those unlawful acts.

We affirm Berry’s conviction. 1 In United States v. Cernobyl, 255 F.3d 1215 *192 (10th Cir. 2001), the Tenth Circuit recently-rejected an argument virtually identical to Berry’s. The Tenth Circuit’s holding is consistent with the findings of other Circuits. See United States v. Martinez, 253 F.3d 251, 256 n. 6 (6th Cir. 2001); United States v. Brough, 243 F.3d 1078, 1080 (7th Cir. 2001), petition for cert. filed, — U.S. -, 122 S.Ct. 203, 151 L.Ed.2d 144 (2001). We agree with our sister Circuits that Berry’s argument lacks merit. 2

We therefore affirm. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
