                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 7:15-CR-565-1


Before REAVLEY, ELROD, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Pedro Sanchez-Alba raises
an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Martinez-Lugo, 782 F.3d
198, 204-05 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 136 S. Ct. 533 (2015). In Martinez-Lugo,

       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.

summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is
AFFIRMED.
