Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Rodriguez-Venegas' argument challenging continued applicability of Almendarez-Torres v. United States to 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2) is foreclosed by United States v. Rodnguez-Lara and subsequent authority.
Rodriguez-Venegas' double counting argument addressed to § 2L 1.2(b) of the guidelines is foreclosed by United States v. Luna-Herrera and United States v. Blanco-Gallegos. Though the significance of the guidelines calculation has changed since then because of United States v. Booker and United States v. Carty, the double counting issue regarding the guidelines calculation under § 2L1.2 has not.
AFFIRMED.
