                                                                       FILED

   United States of America,

                                                             Plaintiff—Appellee,

                                       versus

   Korey J. Jones,

                                                         Defendant—Appellant.

                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Northern District of Texas
                           USDC No. 4:20-CR-64-1

   Before Higginbotham, Jones, and Costa, Circuit Judges.
   Per Curiam:*
          Korey Jones pleaded guilty to one count of illegally possessing a
   firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(a)(2). On appeal, he
   challenges the district court’s denial of a motion to suppress evidence
   obtained during a search of his residence pursuant to a state-issued warrant.

          *
            Pursuant to 5th Circuit Rule 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   opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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 Circuit Rule 47.5.4.

                                    No. 20-10871

   Jones argues that the search warrant affidavit omitted material facts and that
   it lacked indicia of probable cause that contraband would be found at his
   residence.
          Reviewing the district court’s factual findings for clear error and legal
   conclusions de novo, United States v. Cavazos, 288 F.3d 706, 709 (5th Cir.
   2002), we hold that the affidavit provided sufficient facts to support the
   issuance of the warrant and that any omissions or misrepresentations therein
   were not material to the finding of probable cause. See United States v. Davis,
   226 F.3d 346, 351 (5th Cir. 2000); United States v. Satterwhite, 980 F.2d 317,
   321 (5th Cir. 1992).
          Accordingly, the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
