Before WOLLMAN, Chief Judge, FAGG, Circuit Judge, and HENDREN,* District
      Judge.

PER CURIAM.

       Following his conditional guilty plea to a drug charge, Allen J. Vopalka appeals
the district court's refusal to grant Vopalka's motion to suppress the search warrant.
Vopalka also contends the district court improperly calculated the drug quantity
attributable to him. Discussion of the issues presented by this appeal will serve no
useful purpose. We have carefully considered Vopalka's contentions and find them to

for the Western District of Arkansas, sitting by designation.
be without merit. First, the affidavit and application for the search warrant establish
probable cause for issuance of the warrant. Second, the district court's drug quantity
findings are not clearly erroneous. We thus affirm Vopalka's conviction and sentence.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
