presentation of any evidence regarding drug quantity, insisting that the government
was estopped from attributing to her any drugs deriving from transactions for which

determined that she was responsible for 73.90 grams of cocaine. Wood was
sentenced to five months of incarceration and five months of home detention.
The District Court properly rejected Defendant's argument, which we agree
was meritless. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
