Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Eduardo Rivera-Rojana appeals the judgment of conviction following his guilty plea to one count of importing marijuana in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 952, 960.
His contention that 21 U.S.C. § 952 and 960 are facially unconstitutional is foreclosed by United States v. Mendoza-Paz, 286 F.3d 1104, 1109-10 (9th Cir.2002), and United States v. Buckland, 289 F.3d 558 (9th Cir.) (en banc), cert. denied, 535 U. S. 1105, 122 S.Ct. 2314, 152 L.Ed.2d 1067 (2002). His contention that United States v. Harris, 536 U.S. 545, 122 S.Ct. 2406, 153 L.Ed.2d 524 (2002), overrules United States v. Buckland and United States v. Mendoza-Paz is foreclosed by United States v. Hernandez, 314 F.3d 430, as amended, 2003 WL 730663 (9th Cir. Mar.5, 2003). Rivera-Rojana also asserts that the indictment did not allege mens rea as to drug type and amount and is therefore deficient. As he acknowledges, this argument is foreclosed by our decision in United States v. Carranza, 289 F.3d 634, 644 (9th Cir.2002).
AFFIRMED.
