1Per curiam
In a three count indictment Cantu was charged with (1) conspiracy to possess and distribute marihuana; (2) possession with intent to distribute; and (3) distribution of nineteen pounds of marihuana, all in violation of 21 U.S.C.A. § 841(a)(1). He was found guilty of the conspiracy count and not guilty of the distribution count. Count 2 was withdrawn from the jury and dismissed. On appeal Cantu complains of the refusal of the district court to grant his motion for a bill of particulars. He further asserts that the evidence was insufficient to support the conviction for conspiracy. We affirm.
