UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff—Appellee, v. Vernon Andre JACKSON, Defendant—Appellant.
    No. 03-4951.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: Dec. 17, 2004.
    Decided: Jan. 10, 2005.
    Kenneth W. Ravenell, Schulman, Treem, Kaminkow, Gilden & Ravenell, PA, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellant.
    Thomas M. DiBiagio, United States Attorney, John F. Purcell, Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.
    Before NIEMEYER, LUTTIG, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c).
   PER CURIAM:

Vernon Andre Jackson appeals from his conviction for possession with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine, for which he received a 108-month sentence. Finding no error, we affirm.

Jackson’s sole contention on appeal is that the district court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence. Legal conclusions underlying the denial of a motion to suppress are reviewed de novo and factual findings are reviewed for clear error. Ornelas v. United States, 517 U.S. 690, 699, 116 S.Ct. 1657, 134 L.Ed.2d 911 (1996); United States v. Rusher, 966 F.2d 868, 873 (4th Cir.1992).

We have fully reviewed the materials submitted by the parties, including the transcript of the suppression hearing and the district court’s opinion, and find no error in the district court’s order denying in part Jackson’s motion to suppress evidence. Accordingly, we affirm. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
