George Arthur Williams pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm by a felon, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) (2006). Based on his prior convictions for felony crimes of violence, Williams was sentenced pursuant to the Armed Career Criminal Act (“ACCA”), 18 U.S.C. § 924(e) (2006), to 180 months of imprisonment. Williams appeals his sentence. Finding no error, we affirm.

Williams argues that sentencing him pursuant to the ACCA violated his Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights when the facts necessary to support the application of the ACCA were neither alleged in the indictment nor admitted, by him. This court has previously rejected a similar challenge, see United States v. Thompson, 421 F.3d 278 (4th Cir. 2005), thus establishing circuit authority binding on subsequent panels. United States v. Collins, 415 F.3d 304, 311 (4th Cir. 2005) (“A decision of a panel of this court becomes the law of the circuit and is binding on other panels unless it is overruled by a subsequent en banc opinion of this court or a superseding contrary decision of the Supreme Court.”) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). Therefore, this claim fails.

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
