    Before GOLDBERG, RONEY and TJO-FLAT, Circuit Judges.
    
      
       Rule 18, 5 Cir.; see Isbell Enterprises, Inc. v. Citizens Casualty Co. of New York et al, 5 Cir., 1970, 431 F.2d 409, Part I.
    
   PER CURIAM.

This is a border search case. Appellants argue that the marijuana found in their car was inadmissible at their trial because it was seized in an illegal search. The trial court found that there was probable cause for the search. It also held that the government had authority to search the car even without probable cause because the search was conducted at the Sarita checkpoint, the functional equivalent of the border. See U. S. v. Bender, 588 F.2d 200, 201 (5th Cir. 1979) and U. S. v. Clay, 581 F.2d 1190, 1192-93 (5th Cir. 1978). We have studied the record and conclude the evidence was legally admitted.

AFFIRMED.
