ON APPEAL FROM THE UNITED
STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR
THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF
MICHIGAN
OPINION
Before: SUTTON, Chief Judge; CLAY and THAPAR, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM. Danyelle Phillips Jr. pled guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm
in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). In his plea agreement, Phillips reserved the right to seek
appellate review of the district court’s determination that section 922(g)(1) does not violate the
Constitution on its face. He does so now. But our court recently held that section 922(g)(1) is
facially constitutional. United States v. Williams, 113 F.4th 637, 657 (6th Cir. 2024). As Phillips
recognizes, this panel can’t overrule that decision, so we affirm.
