                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 5:12-CR-765-1

Before WIENER, OWEN, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Defendant-Appellant Domingio Tax-Garcia was convicted of one charge
of illegal reentry into the United States, and the district court imposed a
within-guidelines sentence of 60 months in prison and a three-year term of
supervised release. Tax-Garcia contends on appeal that the district court erred
by refusing to award him a third point for acceptance of responsibility under
United States Sentencing Guidelines § 3E1.1(b) after the government refused

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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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

to move for the reduction because he would not waive his right of appeal. This
argument is foreclosed by United States v. Newson, 515 F.3d 374, 376-79 (5th
Cir. 2008).
      AFFIRMED.
