United States v. Jones
Opinion
UNPUBLISHED
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).
Michelle Denise Jones appeals her conviction and twenty-four month sentence imposed for possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) (2000). Jones contends that the district court abused its discretion by refusing to accept her plea of nolo contendere. After careful consideration of the record, we find no abuse of the district court’s broad discretion. See Fed. R.Crim.P. 11(a)(1), (3); United States v. Dorman, 496 F.2d 438, 440 (4th Cir. 1974). We therefore affirm Jones’ conviction and sentence. 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.
