Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 5:14-CR-144-1
Before JOLLY, GRAVES, and COSTA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Guillermo Gomez-Guerrero
raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Martinez-Lugo, 782
F.3d 198, 204-05 (5th Cir. 2015), petition for cert. filed (June 19, 2015) (No. 14-
10355). In Martinez-Lugo, 782 F.3d at 204-05, we held that an enhancement
under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(i) for a prior conviction of a drug trafficking
* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not

No. 14-40972
offense is warranted regardless whether the conviction for the prior offense
required proof of remuneration or commercial activity.
Gomez-Guerrero also raises an argument that is foreclosed by United
States v. Rodriguez-Escareno, 700 F.3d 751, 753-54 (5th Cir. 2012), which held
that the sentence enhancement provided for in § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(i) applies to a
conviction for the federal crime of conspiracy to commit a federal drug
trafficking offense.
Accordingly, the motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, the
alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief is DENIED, and the
judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
