v.

JUAN LAURIANO-ESTEBAN, also known as Juanito Esteban Juan,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                            USDC No. 7:15-CR-1379-1

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Juan Lauriano-Esteban
raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States v. Rodriguez, 711 F.3d
541, 562-63 & n.28 (5th Cir. 2013) (en banc), in which we held that the generic,
contemporary definition of sexual abuse of a minor does not require the age of
consent to be below 17 years old and does not include an age-differential
requirement. He also raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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

                               No. 16-40237

v. Elizondo-Hernandez, 755 F.3d 779, 781-82 (5th Cir. 2014), which held that
the Texas offense of indecency with a child by contact satisfied the generic
definition of sexual abuse of a minor. Accordingly, the motion for summary
disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
