Ennis FLOWERS, Petitioner-Appellant,
v.
UNITED STATES of America, Respondent-Appellee.

No. 91-2020.

United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.

Feb. 19, 1992.

Before KEITH and BOYCE F. MARTIN, Jr., Circuit Judges, and CELEBREZZE, Senior Circuit Judge.

ORDER

1

Ennis Flowers, a pro se federal prisoner, appeals a district court order denying his "Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief." This case has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination, this panel unanimously agrees that oral argument is not needed. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a).

2

Flowers was convicted of possession of cocaine with intent to distribute in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). On appeal, this court affirmed Flowers's conviction. United States v. Flowers, 909 F.2d 145 (6th Cir.1990) (per curiam).

3

Flowers then filed the present "Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief." The district court dismissed the case, and Flowers has filed a timely appeal.

4

Upon review, we affirm the district court's judgment. Flowers alleges that he was improperly convicted of violating a federal administrative regulation, 21 C.F.R. § 1306.04. However, our review of the record and the prior decision of this court on direct appeal reveals that Flowers was not convicted of violating this regulation; rather he was convicted of violating 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). Consequently, this ground is without merit.
