Description
Defendant-Appellant Johnny Youngblood appeals an order of the district court denying his motion to vacate, set aside, or correct a sentence pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2255. Although Youngblood raises four separate issues on appeal, the ground for each contention is that 21 U.S.C. 812, et seq., and 21 C.F.R. 1308.22 specifically exclude methamphetamine from the schedules of controlled substances, and, therefore, he did not violate the Controlled Substances Act. We exercise jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1291 and affirm.1 Youngblood, along with codefendant, Alan Raz, was charged with violations of 21 U.S.C. 841(a)(1), involving the distribution of methamphetamine, 21 U.S.C. 846, conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, and 18 U.S.C. 924(c), possession of a firearm during and relating to drug trafficking. Youngblood entered a plea of guilty to one count of 21 U.S.C. 841(a)(1) and one count of 18 U.S.C. 924(c). He was sentenced to sixty months and twenty-seven months, respectively, with the sentences to run consecutively.
