Before JONES, Chief Judge, and JOLLY and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Jason Jerome Williams raises
arguments that are foreclosed by United States v. Harrimon, 568 F.3d 531 (5th
Cir. 2009), and United States v. Sanchez-Ledezma, 630 F.3d 447, 451 (5th Cir.),
cert. denied, 131 S. Ct. 3024 (2011), which held that the Texas state offense of
evading arrest or detention by use of a vehicle is a violent felony under the
Armed Career Criminal Act (ACCA). See also Sykes v. United States, 131 S. Ct.

       *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
