Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-00-CR-817
__________________________________________
December 11, 2001
Before POLITZ, WIENER, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Gustavo Loeza-Martinez contends on appeal that a conflict exists between
the district court’s oral pronouncement at his sentencing hearing and the written
judgment. Loeza-Martinez asserts that the court remitted the $100 special
assessment at the hearing; however, the subsequent written judgment contains the

published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
$100 assessment. A review of the record reveals that the district court followed
statutory authority both mandating the imposition of the assessment, and permitting
a remittance upon a motion by the Government demonstrating an inability to
collect.1 The transcript from the sentencing hearing as well as the court’s minute
entry, recite that the $100 special assessment was imposed but, on the motion of the
Government, the district court remitted the special assessment. Accordingly,y no
conflict or ambiguity exists in the record to justify a remand.2 The judgment of the
district court is AFFIRMED.
