Bill Celeya Flores appeals from the 57-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for eight counts of distribution of Oxycodone, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841 (a)(1) and (b)(1)(C); one count of possession with intent to distribute Oxycodone, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841 (a)(1) and (b)(1)(C) and 18 U.S.C. § 2 ; and one count of possession of a firearm by an unlawful user of a controlled substance (Methadone), in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922 (g)(8), 924(a)(2) and 2. We dismiss.
