USDC No. 2:05-CR-937-ALL
Before DENNIS, CLEMENT, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Samuel Suchil-Dominguez
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.
