MARIO MEDRANO-SANCHEZ, also known as Jimi Garcia-Sanchez,

                                                  Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 7:13-CR-146-1

Before REAVLEY, OWEN, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Mario Medrano-Sanchez raises
an argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United States v. Rodriguez-
Escareno, 700 F.3d 751, 753-54 (5th Cir. 2012), cert. denied, 133 S. Ct. 2044
(2013), which held that the sentence enhancement provided for in U.S.S.G.
§ 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(i) applies to a conviction for the federal crime of conspiracy to
commit a federal drug-trafficking offense. The appellant’s motion for summary
disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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