   PER CURIAM:

Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Leonal Roman-Cardenas presents arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Gomez-Herrera, 523 F.3d 554, 563 (5th Cir.), cert, denied, — U.S.—, 129 S.Ct. 624, 172 L.Ed.2d 617 (2008), which rejected the argument that the Guidelines produce unwarranted sentencing disparities between defendants who can participate in a fast-track program and defendants who cannot.

       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
