MEMORANDUM

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.


Appellant's sufficiency of evidence challenge fails under the standard set in Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979). Sufficient evidence supports the district court's finding that appellant had a reasonable opportunity to escape. See United States v. Verduzco, 373 F.3d 1022, 1030 (9th Cir. 2004).

AFFIRMED.
