Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit June 15, 2001, No. 00-30251; D.C. No. CR-99-05533-JET (United States v. Miller)

MEMORANDUM *

Miller raises two issues in his timely sentencing appeal over which we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Miller first contends that the district court erred at sentencing by not making an independent determination that he did not qualify for safety valve relief under 18 U.S.C. § 3553© (as implemented at U.S.S.G. § 5C1.2).
