UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
SHIRLEY THIBODEAUX,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:02-CR-541-1
--------------------
Before KING, Chief Judge, and DeMOSS and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Shirley Thibodeaux appeals her sentence imposed on a guilty-
plea conviction for fraud in connection with identification
documents in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1028(a)(7), (b)(1)(D),
(c)(3)(A). Thibodeaux argues that the district court erred in
imposing a 12-level adjustment because the loss attributed to
Thibodeaux exceeded $200,000, a two-level adjustment because the

identification. See U.S.S.G. § 2B1.1(b)(1)(G), (b)(2)(A),
(b)(9)(C)(i)(Nov. 2002).
For the first time on appeal, Thibodeaux argues that these
sentencing adjustments were unconstitutional under Blakely v.
Washington, 124 S. Ct. 2531 (2004). As Thibodeaux concedes, her
Blakely argument is foreclosed by this court’s decision in United
States v. Pineiro, 377 F.3d 464, 473 (5th Cir. 2004), petition
for cert. filed (U.S. July 14, 2004) (No. 04-5263). Accordingly,
Thibodeaux’s sentence is AFFIRMED.
