No. 01-40688 Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

VIRDIS LARON BONNER,

Defendant-Appellant.

- - - - - - - - - - Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. C-00-CR-227-1 - - - - - - - - - - January 3, 2002 Before REAVLEY, DAVIS and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.

determining the payment schedule for his restitution. The

AFFIRMED.
