Before JONES, OWEN, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Jaime Betancourt-Nunez

Escareno, 700 F.3d 751, 753-54 (5th Cir. 2012), cert. denied, 133 S. Ct. 2044

commit a federal drug-trafficking offense. The appellant’s motion for summary
disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
