IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-20708

Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

OLIVERIO VALENCIA-GARCIA, also known as Oliverio Garcia Valencia, also 

known as Oliverio Garza Valencia, also known as Oliverio Valencia Garcia,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 4:14-CR-203-1

Before DAVIS, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Oliverio Valencia-Garcia 

raises an argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United States v. MoralesMota, 704 F.3d 410, 412 (5th Cir. 2013), which rejected the argument that the 

Texas offense of “burglary of a habitation” is broader than the generic, 

contemporary definition of “burglary of a dwelling” under U.S.S.G. 

 

* 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.

§ 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii) because it defines the “owner” of a habitation as a person 

with a “greater right to possession of the property than the actor.” Accordingly, 

the motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the 

district court is AFFIRMED.
