Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:06-CR-944-1
--------------------
Before JOLLY, CLEMENT, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Enrique Mancilla
raises arguments that are foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres v.
United States, 523 U.S. 224, 235 (1998), which held that 8 U.S.C.
§ 1326(b)(2) is a penalty provision and not a separate criminal
offense. The appellant’s motion for summary disposition 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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
