United States v. Frankie Valez

LUMBARD, Circuit Judge:

Frankie Valez appeals from a judgment of conviction entered in the Southern District on January 17, 1986 following his conditional guilty plea before Judge Richard Owen to a charge of possession of cocaine with intent to distribute in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841. Judge Owen sentenced Valez to three years’ imprisonment to be followed by ten years’ special parole, and imposed on Valez a $50 assessment. Pursuant to his plea agreement and Fed.R.Crim.P. 11(a)(2), Valez reserved his right to appeal Judge Owen’s denial of his pretrial suppression motion. We affirm.
