PER CURIAM:

     Jerrell Leon Johnson appeals from the 120-month sentence im-

posed following his guilty plea to conspiracy to distribute and

possess with intent to distribute crack cocaine, 21 U.S.C. § 846

(1994).     Johnson claims that the district court erred by taking

into account his sister’s grand jury testimony in determining his

relevant conduct. We have reviewed the briefs and the record and

find that the district court did not clearly err by attributing to

him the 56 grams of cocaine as the result of his sister’s testi-

mony.     See United States v. McHan, 101 F.3d 1027, 1034 (4th Cir.

1996).     Accordingly, we affirm Johnson’s sentence.   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
