UNITED STATES of America
v.
James Earl GIVENS, Appellant.

No. 92-3045.

United States Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit.

May 3, 1994.

Before: MIKVA, Chief Judge; WALD and RANDOLPH, Circuit Judges.

JUDGMENT

PER CURIAM.

This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and on the briefs filed by the parties. The court has determined that the issues presented occasion no need for an opinion. See D.C.Cir.Rule 36(b). It is

ORDERED that the district court's judgment of conviction and sentence be affirmed. The evidence presented at trial established the elements of the crime, see Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319 (1979), and the district court properly determined that Givens possessed more than five grams of cocaine base and sentenced him accordingly.

The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing. See D.C.Cir.Rule 41.
