OPINION

PER CURIAM:

1

Kenneth Fitzgerald and Codell Chavis appeal judgments entered on the verdict of a jury for conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine in violation of 21 U.S.C. Secs. 841(a)(1) & (b)(1)(A), 846 (1981). They assign error to the court's denial of their motion for acquittal, to its rulings on the admissibility of evidence, to the instructions, and to the court's denial of their request for a downward departure from the applicable guideline range.

2

Upon consideration of the record, briefs, and oral argument, we find no error in the judgments. United States v. Fitzgerald, No. 2:92CR303-02 (M.D.N.C. June 10, 1993); United States v. Chavis, No. 2:92CR303-01 (M.D.N.C. June 10, 1993).

AFFIRMED
