MEMORANDUM**
Michael P. Hollins appeals his 180-month sentence imposed after a jury convicted him of being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. Sec. 922(g)(1). Hollins contends that the district court erroneously sentenced him under 18 U.S.C. Sec. 924(e) because one of his prior state convictions was invalid due to the ineffective assistance of counsel.
Hollins's challenge to his prior state conviction is foreclosed by Custis v. United States, 62 U.S.L.W. 4346, 4349 (U.S. May 23, 1994) (defendant may attack collaterally prior state convictions used for federal sentence enhancement only on ground that he was denied the right to appointed counsel in prior state court proceedings). Accordingly, we will not review Hollins's claim. See Griffith v. Kentucky, 479 U.S. 314, 328 (1987) (new rule of criminal procedure applies retroactively to cases pending on direct appeal).
AFFIRMED.
