v.

JAMES BROOKS

                                            Defendant-Appellant

                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Texas
                           USDC No. 4:06-CR-139-1

Before JOLLY, HIGGINBOTHAM, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
      Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, James Brooks presents
arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Daugherty,
264 F.3d 513, 518 (5th Cir. 2001), which rejected a Commerce Clause
challenge to the felon-in-possession-of-a-firearm statute, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g). The
Government’s motion for summary affirmance 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should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited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.
