Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas

December 11, 2002
Before JOLLY, DAVIS, and JONES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Juan Munoz-Mendoza (Munoz) appeals his guilty-plea

Cir. 1999); United States v. Wilder, 15 F.3d 1292, 1299 (5th Cir.
1994). The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
