MEMORANDUM**

2
Robert Huffman, a federal prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's denial of his Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) motion for relief from a stipulated judgment of forfeiture pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 881(a)(6).  Huffman contends that he is entitled to relief from judgment because the Double Jeopardy Clause barred the forfeiture due to his prior guilty plea to criminal charges.  This contention is precluded by the Supreme Court's decision in  United States v. Ursery, No. 95-345, 1996 WL 340815 (U.S. June 24, 1996).

AFFIRMED.
