MEMORANDUM
Defendant-Appellant Christopher Dale Briggs appeals his conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(8) for unlawfully possessing a firearm as a person subject to a restraining order. He contends that the conviction should be vacated due to a violation of the Speedy Trial Act. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
