Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana

Before KING, HIGGINBOTHAM, and GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Antonio Vazquez-Gutierrez appeals from his bench-verdict
conviction for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute
marijuana. He argues that the evidence produced at trial was
insufficient to prove his knowing participation in the
conspiracy. Vazquez-Gutierrez specifically refutes several of
the bases the district court relied upon when issuing the guilty
verdict.

the Government and deferring to all reasonable inferences drawn

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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.

by the trial court, the district court’s finding of guilt is
supported by substantial evidence. See United States v. Turner,
319 F.3d 716, 720-21 (5th Cir. 2003). Accordingly, the district
court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
