Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Richard John Iehihara appeals from the 30-year sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for continuing criminal enterprise, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 848(a), (b) & (s), conspiracy to distribute more than 50 grams net weight of methamphetamine hydrochloride, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and 846, and money laundering, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 956(a)(1)(B)®. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Iehihara contends that the district court erred when it imposed a two-level enhancement for importation of methamphetamine pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(b)(4). The record reflects that Iehihara admitted to knowingly importing methamphetamine, and we therefore conclude that the district court did not err. See U.S.S.G. § 2Dl.l(b)(4).
AFFIRMED.
