PER CURIAM:

     Lori Leigh Demian appeals from her criminal conviction pursu-

ant to a guilty plea for possession of a firearm by a convicted

felon in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) (1994).    We affirm.

     Demian raises only a Fourth Amendment challenge on appeal,

asserting that the district court erred in denying her motion to

suppress the firearm seized from her during an allegedly improper

search and seizure.    A defendant who voluntarily pleads guilty

waives federal consideration of allegations of antecedent consti-

tutional violations.   See Tollett v. Henderson, 411 U.S. 258, 266-

67 (1973).    We therefore find that Demian has waived her present

challenge.    Accordingly, we affirm her conviction.   We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.

                                                           AFFIRMED
