v.

JOSE ANTONIO LARIUS

                                                  Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 7:12-CR-500-1

Before KING, CLEMENT, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Jose Antonio Larius raises an
argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United States v. Izaguirre-Flores, 405
F.3d 270, 277-78 (5th Cir. 2005), which held that the North Carolina offense of
taking indecent liberties with a child constitutes “sexual abuse of a minor” and
thus is a crime of violence for purposes of the 16-level enhancement under
United States Sentencing Guidelines § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii). Larius’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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
