UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

LEONAL ROMAN-CARDENAS,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of Texas

USDC No. 5:08-CR-84-1

Before GARZA, DENNIS, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.

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, 129 S. Ct. 624 (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. The Government’s motion for summary

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