IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-41025

Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

VICTOR HUGO MADRIGAL-DAVILA

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 1:14-CR-73-1

Before REAVLEY, SMITH, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Victor Hugo Madrigal-Davila

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, Madrigal-Davila’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.
