    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the Northern District of Texas
    USDC No. 4:97-CR-56-A-3
    - - - - - - - - - -
    April 8, 1998
    Before JOLLY, JONES, and DUHÉ, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:*
    Tammy Jo Mayo appeals from her judgment of conviction and
    sentence.   She argues that the district court erred by
    attributing to her 19 pounds of methamphetamine and that a
    comment by the district court at the sentencing hearing
    constituted a threat that chilled her defense.    We have reviewed
    the record and find no reversible error.    Affidavits and
    testimony by Mayo’s coconspirators support the district court’s
    decision to attribute to her 19 pounds of methamphetamine.        See
    United States v. Maseratti, 
    1 F.3d 330
    , 340 (5th Cir. 1993).
    *
    Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
    that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
    except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
    R. 47.5.4.
    No. 97-11057
    -2-
    Further, the district court’s comment at the sentencing hearing
    was a correct statement of the law and did not constitute a
    threat.   See U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1, comment. (n.1(a)).   Accordingly,
    the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
