v.

RAUL SANTANA-GARCIA,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Western District of Texas
                             USDC No. 2:15-CR-92-1

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Raul Santana-Garcia raises
an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Martinez-Lugo, 782 F.3d
198, 204-05 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 136 S. Ct. 533 (2015). In Martinez-Lugo,
782 F.3d at 204-05, we held that an enhancement under U.S.S.G.
§ 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(i) for a prior felony conviction of a drug trafficking offense is
warranted regardless whether the conviction for the prior offense required

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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

proof of remuneration or commercial activity. Accordingly, the Government’s
motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, the alternative motion for an
extension of time to file a brief is DENIED, and the judgment of the district
court is AFFIRMED.
