   MEMORANDUM

Alejandro Yliz Aguirre appeals from his conviction for various drug offenses. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Aguirre contends that the district court’s instruction to the grand jury violated the Fifth Amendment by improperly limiting the grand jury’s discretion. This contention fails because the instructions here substantially mirrored those approved in United States v. Cortez-Rivera, 454 F.3d 1038, 1040 (9th Cir.2006), and United States v. Navarro-Vargas, 408 F.3d 1184 (9th Cir.2005) (en banc).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
