v.
LUIS PINEDO-MORALES,
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. 3:09-CR-1083-1
Before DAVIS, SMITH, and WIENER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Luis Pinedo-Morales presents
arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Gomez-
Herrera, 523 F.3d 554, 562-63 (5th Cir. 2008), which held that the disparity
between sentences of defendants who can participate in a fast-track program
and defendants who cannot is not “unwarranted” within the meaning of 18
U.S.C. § 3553(a)(6). The Government’s motion for summary affirmance is
GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR . R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .
R. 47.5.4.
