UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. SAMUEL KWUSHUE, Defendant - Appellant.


[DO NOT PUBLISH] D.C. Docket No. 1:15-cr-00398-SCJ-JFK-1 Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia Before WILSON and NEWSOM, Circuit Judges, and WRIGHT, District Judge. PER CURIAM:

Honorable Susan Webber Wright, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas, sitting by designation. --------

Samuel Kwushue appeals his convictions, 51-month sentence of imprisonment, and restitution of $5,249,958.57 for eight counts of wire fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343. He argues that the district court erred in determining the loss amount and restitution for his food-stamp fraud scheme, applying a four-level enhancement for an aggravating role in the offense, and finding a proper factual basis that he used interstate wires to perpetrate a scheme to defraud. After a careful review of the briefs and the record, and having the benefit of oral argument, we find no error.

AFFIRMED.
