Judy Fulmer Madewell, Asst. Fed. Pub. Def., Henry Joseph Bemporad, Fed. Pub. Def., San Antonio, TX, for Heth.

Before KING, BARKSDALE and ELROD, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:

Defendant-Appellant Gary Lee Heth appeals his conviction under 18 U.S.C. § 2250 for failure to register in accordance with the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act. Heth contends that it was impossible to register and that his conviction consequently violated due process because Colorado, where he was convicted of the predicate sex offense, and Texas, where he was arrested and tried, had not implemented the Act. We affirm.
