habitation. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 30.02. By failing to raise any specific
error in the revocation or revocation sentence, he has abandoned any challenge
to the revocation proceeding. See United States v. Solano-Hernandez, 847 F.3d
170, 174 n.2 (5th Cir. 2017). He argues that § 30.02(a) is not divisible and, in
the alternative, that the Government failed to show that he was convicted of a
crime of violence because the judgment references § 30.01(a)(1) while the
indictment tracks the language of § 30.02(a)(3), which this court has held is
not a crime of violence.
Section 30.02(a) of the Texas Penal Code is divisible, and a violation of
§ 30.02(a)(1) constitutes generic burglary of a dwelling. United States v. Uribe,
838 F.3d 667, 670-71 (5th Cir. 2016), cert. denied, 2017 WL 661924 (Mar. 20,
2017) (No. 16-7969); see § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii) & comment. (n.1(B)(iii)) (2015).
Linares-Briceno has not established that a conflict renders the judgment
unreliable for purposes of determining which subsection of § 30.02(a) formed
the basis for the conviction. See Solano-Hernandez, 847 F.3d at 177.
Furthermore, his argument that the indictment created a conflict assumes that
the indictment may be used to narrow the statute of conviction. The judgment
indicates, however, that Linares-Briceno was not convicted of burglary as
charged in the indictment. See United States v. Bonilla, 524 F.3d 647, 652 (5th
Cir. 2008). In light of the foregoing, he has failed to show that the district court
erred, plainly or otherwise, by applying the crime-of-violence enhancement.
See Uribe, 838 F.3d at 671.
The judgments of the district court are AFFIRMED.
