                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 5:13-CR-739-1

Before CLEMENT, PRADO, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Jose Luis Balderas-Gonzalez
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 unopposed 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.
