*1 Before WIENER, DENNIS, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: ^[*]

Brenda Vianet Martinez-Montes appeals her guilty plea to one count of importing five kilograms or more of cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 960. She asserts that the factual basis for her guilty plea was inadequate because the Government failed to meet its obligation to prove that she had knowledge of the particular type and quantity of controlled substance involved in her offense.

No. 17-40102

As Martinez-Montes concedes, her argument is foreclosed by United States v. Betancourt , 586 F.3d 303, 308–09 (5th Cir. 2009). There we held that Flores-Figueroa v. United States , 556 U.S. 646 (2009), did not overturn United States v. Gamez-Gonzalez , 319 F.3d 695 (5th Cir. 2003), and that the Government is not required to prove knowledge of the drug type and quantity as an element of a drug offense. Accordingly, the motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
