Summary Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
DAMEION T. ZENO,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana
USDC No. 03-CR-20010-2
--------------------
Before REAVLEY, JONES and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Dameion T. Zeno appeals his guilty-plea conviction for
possession of a firearm in relation to a drug trafficking crime,
in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)(A).
Zeno argues that the district court erred when it denied his
motion to withdraw his guilty plea. This court accords broad
discretion to the district court’s decision regarding a motion to
withdraw and will reverse such a decision only for an abuse of
that discretion. United States v. Carr, 740 F.2d 339, 343-44
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
No. 04-30106
-2-
(5th Cir. 1984). The totality of the circumstances in this case
indicates that Zeno has failed to demonstrate a fair and just
reason for withdrawing his guilty plea. See id.
The judgment of the district court is therefore AFFIRMED.
