UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee,
v.
Rudolph R. NORDQUEST, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 95-36165.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Submitted Aug. 12, 1996.*
Decided Aug. 19, 1996.

Before: BROWNING, SCHROEDER, and RYMER, Circuit Judges.

MEMORANDUM**

Rudolph R. Nordquest, a federal prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion challenging the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to two counts of armed bank robbery (18 U.S.C. § 2113(a) and (d)) and two counts of use of a firearm during a crime of violence (18 U.S.C. § 924(c)(1)). Nordquest contends that the imposition of consecutive sentences for his § 2113 and § 924(c) convictions based on the same set of facts violates the Double Jeopardy Clause. We have previously rejected this contention. See United States v. Browne, 829 F.2d 760, 767 (9th Cir.1987)., cert. denied, 485 U.S. 991 (1988).

AFFIRMED.
