Before HIGGINBOTHAM, GARZA, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Kenneth Eugene Moore raises
arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Hernandez, 633

sentence within the statutory maximum that is based upon judge-found facts
does not violate the Sixth Amendment. The Government’s motion for summary

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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