          Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Western District of Texas
                     USDC No. 2:05-CR-393-ALL
                       --------------------

Before DAVIS, BARKSDALE, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Raul Montenegro-

Carmona raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States v.

Hinojosa-Lopez, 130 F.3d 691, 694 (5th Cir. 1997), which held

that a Texas felony conviction for possession of marijuana was an

“aggravated felony” under § 2L1.2(b) of the Sentencing

Guidelines.    The Government’s motion for summary affirmance is

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



     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
