UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Hector Luis ERQUIAGA, Defendant-Appellant. No. 89-50508. United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit. Submitted April 7, 1993. * Decided April 13, 1993. Before BROWNING, KOZINSKI and RYMER, Circuit Judges. 1 MEMORANDUM ** 2 Hector Luis Erquiaga appeals his 121-month sentence imposed following a jury trial for possession with intent to distribute cocaine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841 (a)(1). Erquiaga contends that the district court erred by failing to consider his "imperfect duress" defense as a ground to depart downward from the applicable Guidelines range. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. 1 3 We lack jurisdiction to review a district court's discretionary selection of a sentence within a properly calculated Guideline range.
