883 F.2d 56 (1989)

UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. Delbert L. LANE, Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.

Decided August 24, 1989.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Donald R. Cooley, Springfield, Mo., for appellant.

Gregory Johnson, Springfield, Mo., for appellee.

Before ARNOLD, JOHN R. GIBSON and BOWMAN, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM.

Delbert L. Lane was sentenced to 21 months imprisonment following a guilty plea to one count of distributing cocaine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). The only issue on appeal is the constitutionality of the Sentencing Guidelines. Lane claims the guidelines are in violation of the separation of powers doctrine and his right to due process. We affirm the sentence imposed by the district court.
