    Before FERNANDEZ, THOMAS, and WARDLAW, Circuit Judges.
    
      
       This panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2).
    
   MEMORANDUM

Arthur Ochoa-Ocano appeals his conviction and the 120-month sentence imposed by the district court following his guilty plea conviction for possession of cocaine with intent to distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).

Ochoa contends that, in light of Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), § 841 is unconstitutional on its face and therefore his conviction and sentence must be vacated. This contention is foreclosed by our recent decision in United States v. Buckland, 277 F.3d 1173, 1177 (9th Cir.2002) (en banc) (concluding that § 841 is not facially unconstitutional).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as may be provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
