MEMORANDUM**

William Graham Snyder appeals the district court's order which granted the government's Fed.R.Crim.P. 35 motion and reduced Snyder's sentence by 60 months for his substantial assistance to the government. Snyder contends that the district court erred by denying his motion for a further downward departure to reduce his sentence to time served. He argues the district court based its sentencing decision on an unconstitutional ground, but our review of the record indicates no support for this contention. Because a defendant may not challenge on appeal the extent of a downward departure from the Sentencing Guidelines, United States v. Riggins, 40 F.3d 1055, 1058 (9th Cir.1994), this appeal is
