                    for the Northern District of Texas

                         September 17, 2002
Before REAVLEY, BARKSDALE, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     We hold:     (1) the evidence was sufficient to allow a reasonable

juror to find Ramirez’ statement that he would make the home he

purchased through HUD his primary home for three years was false when

made; (2) the district court did not commit reversible plain error by

allowing the Government’s examination of Agent Gilbert, who was

called as an adverse witness by Ramirez; and (3) the district court

did not commit clear error in assessing a two level enhancement for

“more than minimal planning”.     Accordingly, the judgment 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opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the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.
