UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

JUAN CARLOS COMPIAN,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 2:09-CR-220-1

Before JOLLY, STEWART, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

*

Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Juan Carlos Compian raises

arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Betancourt, 586

F.3d 303, 308-09 (5th Cir. 2009), cert. denied, 130 S. Ct. 1920 (2010), which

reaffirmed the holding in United States v. Gamez-Gonzalez, 319 F.3d 695, 700

(5th Cir. 2003), that knowledge of drug type and quantity is not a material

element of the offense. The appellant’s unopposed motion for summary

disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
