ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY *

Terrence L. O’Brien, Circuit Judge

Jonathan Sandoval is a federal prisoner who seeks a certificate of appealability (COA) to appeal the denial of his motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. *See*28 U.S.C. § 2258(c)(1)(B) (requiring a COA to appeal the denial of a § 2255 motion). After he pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of ammunition, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), the district court sentenced him to 15 years in prison under the Armed Career Criminal Act (ACCA), *see id.*§ 924(e)(1), based on at least three prior convictions in New Mexico for residential burglary, *see*N.M. Stat. Ann. § SO-ie^A).1 Sandoval moved to vacate his sentence under § 2255, arguing residential burglary encompasses more conduct than generic burglary for purposes of applying the ACCA. The district court denied relief and also denied a COA.

To obtain a COA from this court, Sandoval must make “a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2). He must show “reasonable jurists could debate whether (or, for that matter, agree that) the petition should have been resolved in a different manner or that the issues presented were adequate to deserve encouragement to proceed further.” *Miller-El v. Cockrell,*537 U.S. 322, 336, 123 S.Ct. 1029, 154 L.Ed.2d 931 (2003) (internal quotation marks omitted).

Sandoval’s arguments might have been debatable before our decision in *United States v. Turrieta,*875 F.3d 1340 (10th Cir. 2017), but they are no longer. *Turrieta*held a New Mexico conviction for residential burglary qualifies as a generic burglary under the ACCA. *Id.*at 1346-47. Thus, no reasonable jurist would debate the district court’s decision or debate whether Sandoval’s arguments deserve encouragement to proceed further. They do not. Accordingly, we deny a COA and dismiss this appeal.

*

 After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist in the determination of this matter. *See*Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. This order is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
