UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

TARLETHA DIANE REED Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court For the Southern District of Texas (H-96-CR-0229-3)

January 23, 1998

Before POLITZ, Chief Judge, HIGGINBOTHAM, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.

Reed challenges her sentence on the grounds that she was

entitled to discovery at sentencing and that the Mandatory Victim

Restitution Act is unconstitutional. Reed’s arguments are without

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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