Gary R. ROTH, Petitioner-Appellant, v. UNITED STATES of America, Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 02-1447.
    United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.
    Submitted Aug. 6, 2002.
    Decided Aug. 9, 2002.
    Before BAUER, EASTERBROOK, and KANNE, Circuit Judges.
   Order

In this collateral attack, based on Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), Gary Roth contends that a failure to allege drug quantity in an indictment is a “jurisdictional” defect. After Roth filed his brief, the Supreme Court rejected that contention. See United States v. Cotton, — U.S.-, 122 S.Ct. 1781, 152 L.Ed.2d 860 (2002). Moreover, we have held that Apprendi does not apply retroactively on collateral review. See Curtis v. United States, 294 F.3d 841 (7th Cir.2002). Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is affirmed.
