Before KING, JOLLY, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Jorge Luis Garcia appeals from the district court’s order

affirming the magistrate judge’s order of detention pending trial.

The district court’s decision rests on its conclusion that Garcia

presents a danger to the community and a risk of flight, and that

no conditions will reasonably assure Garcia’s appearance.        18

U.S.C. § 3142(e) & (f).      The district court’s conclusion is

     *
      Pursuant to Local Rule 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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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 Local Rule 47.5.4.
supported by the record.    See United States v. Rueben, 

, 586 (5th Cir. 1992), cert. denied, 

(1993).   The

district court’s detention order is AFFIRMED.    The Government’s

motion to consolidate is DENIED.

     AFFIRMED.   MOTION TO CONSOLIDATE DENIED.
