    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the Southern District of Texas
    USDC No. 7:05-CR-1015
    --------------------
    Before REAVLEY, STEWART, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:*
    Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Alfredo Casas-
    Garcia raises arguments that are foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres
    v. United States, 
    523 U.S. 224
    , 235 (1998), which held that
    
    8 U.S.C. § 1326
    (b)(2) is a penalty provision and not a separate
    criminal offense.   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    this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
