MANUEL ENRIQUE PEREZ-VILLARREAL,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 1:13-CR-11-1


Before CLEMENT, PRADO, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Manuel Enrique Perez-
Villarreal (Perez) raises an argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United
States v. Betancourt, 
586 F.3d 303
, 308-09 (5th Cir. 2009), which held that
knowledge of drug type and quantity is not an element of the offense under 21
U.S.C. § 841. Accordingly, Perez’s unopposed motion for summary disposition
is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.


       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.
