1Opinion of the Court
WOLLMAN, Circuit Judge.
Reynaldo Quesada Morales and Juan Felix Toca appeal their convictions and resulting sentences imposed by the district court. 1 The jury convicted both men of conspiracy to distribute marijuana in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846. Toca was also convicted of possession of heroin with intent to distribute in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). Both argue that the evidence adduced at trial proved two conspiracies rather than a single overall conspiracy and that the district court erred in computing the amount of marijuana to establish their base offense levels. 2 We affirm.
