Before JONES, Chief Judge, and SMITH and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case following a remand

for resentencing, Gregory Hicks raises arguments that are

foreclosed by United States v. Johnson, 445 F.3d 793, 797-98 (5th

Cir.), cert. denied, 126 S. Ct. 2884 (2006), which held that the

sentencing guideline range should be determined in the same

manner as before United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005),

652, 657 (5th Cir. 2002), which held that under the law of the

       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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.

be reexamined by the appellate court on a subsequent appeal.   The

Government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, and the

judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
