United States v. Rowland

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM**

George Rowland appeals his guilty plea conviction for one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Rowland contends that 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) is unconstitutional under the Commerce Clause in light of United States v. Lopez, 514 U.S. 549, 115 S.Ct. 1624, 131 L.Ed.2d 626 (1995), United States v. Morrison, 529 U.S. 598, 120 S.Ct. 1740, 146 L.Ed.2d 658 (2000) and Jones v. United States, 529 U.S. 848, 120 S.Ct. 1904, 146 L.Ed.2d 902 (2000). We have repeatedly rejected this contention, see United States v. Jones, 231 F.3d 508, 513-15 (9th Cir. 2000), United States v. Davis, 242 F.3d 1162, 1162-63 (9th Cir.) (per curiam), cert. denied,—U.S.—, 122 S.Ct. 178, 151 L.Ed.2d 123 (2001), and United States v. Rousseau, 257 F.3d 925, 932-33 (9th Cir.), cert. denied,—U.S.—, 122 S.Ct. 503, 151 L.Ed.2d 413 (2001), and do so here. See United States v. Carrasco, 257 F.3d 1045, 1053 (9th Cir.), cert. denied,—U.S. —, 122 S.Ct. 658, 151 L.Ed.2d 574 (2001).1

AFFIRMED.
