2 evidence from 2014 violated his Sixth Amendment right to the effective assistance of counsel in deci ding whether to plead guilty, his Fifth Amendment rights to due process and indictment by a grand jury, and his Sixth Amendment right to a jury trial requiring proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Asserting that his arguments are foreclosed by circuit preceden t, Gonzalez has filed an unopposed motion for summary affirmance

. However,
his motion is insufficient to show that summary affirmance is appropriate

. See United States v. Houston , 625 F.3d 871, 873 n.2 (5th Cir. 2010) (noting that denial of summary affir mance is appropriate where cases cited do not directly address the issues presented)

. While the cases cited in Gonzalez’s motion demonstrate that his arguments regarding the voluntariness of his plea and ineffective assistance of counsel are squarely fore closed by Fifth Circuit law,

see , e.g. , United States v. Rivera , 898 F.2d 442, 447 (5th Cir. 1990) , those cases
do not address the remaining Fifth and Sixth Amendment issues he raises.
N evertheless , we affirm the judgment for the reasons below.
Under t he advisory Guidelines regime in effect after United States v.
Booker , 543 U.S. 220 (2005) , the Fifth and Sixth Amendments do not prevent a sentencing judge from finding all facts relevant to sentencing (except those that increase the applicable statutory ma ximum) under the standard of preponderance of the evidence. United States v. Hebert , 813 F.3d 551, 564 (5th Cir. 2015). Furthermore, a “ defendant need not have been convicted of, or even charged with, the other offenses for them to be considered relevant conduct for sentencing purposes.” United States v. Rhine , 583 F.3d 878, 885 (5th Cir. 2009). Accordingly, though not addressed by the c ases cited in his motion, Gonzalez’s remaining arguments are squarely foreclosed by Fifth Circuit law. The district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED, and Gonzalez’s motion for summary disposition is DENIED. Case: 17-10762 Document: 00514389679 Page: 2 Date Filed: 03/16/2018
