versus

LEONARD NEAL JACKSON, Defendant-Appellant.

- - - - - - - - - - Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. H-94-CR-182-1 - - - - - - - - - - February 24, 1997

Before SMITH, EMILIO M. GARZA, and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Leonard Neal Jackson appeals from his conviction by guilty

plea of bribery of a public official. Jackson contends that the

district court erred by denying his motion to withdraw his guilty

plea.

We have reviewed the record and the briefs of the parties

and we find that the district court did not abuse its discretion

by denying Jackson’s motion to withdraw his plea. United States

v. Carr, 740 F.2d 339, 344 (5th Cir. 1984). Accordingly, we

affirm Jackson’s conviction.

* Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4. No. 96-20188 - 2 -

AFFIRMED.
