Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

JOSE MARTINEZ, also known as Jose Antonio Martinez, also known as Jose 

Antonio Martinez Rangel, also known as Jose Martinez Aguilar,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 4:14-CR-561-1

Before DAVIS, SMITH, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Jose Martinez raises an 

argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Martinez-Lugo, 782 F.3d 198, 

204-05 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 136 S. Ct. 533 (2015). In Martinez-Lugo, 782 

F.3d at 204-05, we held that an enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(i) 

for a prior felony conviction of a drug trafficking offense is warranted 

 

* 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.
