PER CURIAM.
A jury found Mark Clinton Russell guilty on all counts of an
indictment charging him with one count of conspiracy to transport stolen
checks and drafts valued at $5,000.00 or more in interstate commerce, a
violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371, and nine counts of transporting stolen checks
and drafts valued at $5,000.00 or more in interstate commerce, a violation
of 18 U.S.C. § 2314. The district court1 sentenced Russell to twenty-six
months' imprisonment, to be followed by a three-year term of supervised
release, and ordered Russell to pay restitution in the amount of
$329,043.90.
On appeal, Russell contends that the district court erred in
permitting the government to impeach him on the basis of statements Russell
had made in a letter to investigating agents in Florida.

The Honorable Ronald E. Longstaff, United States District
Judge for the Southern District of Iowa.
He also contends that the district court erred in calculating the amount
of loss under section 2B1.1 of the sentencing guidelines.
Having reviewed the record, we are satisfied that Russell's
contentions are without merit. In light of the fact-intensive nature of
the case, an extended opinion would have no precedential value.
Accordingly, we affirm without further discussion of the issues. See 8th
Cir. R. 47B.
