United States v. Salas-Jimenez

United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit F I L E D IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT February 23, 2006 Charles R. Fulbruge III Clerk No. 05-40596 Conference Calendar UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus ANTONIO SALAS-JIMENEZ, Defendant-Appellant. -------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. 1:04-CR-901-ALL -------------------- Before GARZA, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Antonio Salas-Jimenez (Salas) pleaded guilty to being found in the United States after deportation and was sentenced to 30 months of imprisonment and two years of supervised release. He contends for the first time on appeal that the district court erred by ordering him to cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample as a condition of supervised release. This claim is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction because it is not ripe for review. See United States v. Riascos-Cuenu, 428 F.3d 1100, 1101- * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. No. 05-40596 -2- 02 (5th Cir. 2005), petition for cert. filed (Jan. 9, 2006) (No. 05-8662). Salas contends that 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b) is unconstitutional and that this court should vacate his sentence and remand his case for resentencing to no more than two years in prison under 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). As he concedes, this contention is foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224, 235 (1998). JUDGMENT AFFIRMED; APPEAL DISMISSED IN PART.
