Before GRUENDER, BENTON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Jason Paul Rodriguez pled guilty to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 841(b)(1)(A), 846, and 851. The district court 1 sentenced him to 360 months in prison. He appeals. Having jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, this court affirms.
providing it to distributors in his bedroom. He also directed at least one distributor to deliver drugs to a co-conspirator for resale on a weekly basis. See Garcia, 512 F.3d at 1005-06 (affirming enhancement where, among other things, defendant “directed others to package and deliver drugs”).
The district court did not clearly err in finding Rodriguez an organizer or leader of the conspiracy. It did not err in enhancing his sentence under U.S.S.G. § 3B1.1.
******* The judgment is affirmed.
