PER CURIAM:* Salazar-Gonzales appeals her sentence after pleading guilty to illegal reentry after deportation, 8 U.S.C. § 1326. She argues that the district court misapplied the sentencing guidelines by applying the 16-point upward adjustment of U.S.S.G.

§ 2L1.2(b)(2). She contends that her previous conviction for burglary of a habitation should not be considered an aggravated felony because she received a suspended sentence of probation.

* Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4.

No. 95-50821 -2- The district court did not misapply the sentencing guidelines.

See United States v. Vasquez-Balandran, 76 F.3d 648 (5th Cir. 1996).

AFFIRMED.
