United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided June 16, 1995.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Sylvia Torres-Guillen, Deputy Federal Public Defender, Los Angeles, CA, for defendant-appellant.

Stephen J. McConnell, Asst. U.S. Atty., Los Angeles, CA, for plaintiff-appellee.

Before: FLETCHER, BRUNETTI, and T.G. NELSON, Circuit Judges.


T.G. NELSON, Circuit Judge:

Jerry Lee France appeals from his 96-month sentence, imposed following his guilty pleas, for two counts of bank robbery in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a). France contends that the district court erred by increasing his offense level under the United States Sentencing Guidelines for making an "express threat of death" during one of the robberies. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
