IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 02-20410 Conference Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

versus

FERNANDO CASTILLO, JR.,

Defendant-Appellant.

-------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. H-01-CR-808-ALL -------------------- February 20, 2003

Before WIENER, EMILIO M. GARZA, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Fernando Castillo, Jr., pleaded guilty to being a felon in

possession of a firearm, in violation of

(g)(1)

and 924(a)(2). He argues that his conviction should be reversed

because

(g)(1) is unconstitutional on its face and

as applied. He concedes, however, that this argument is

foreclosed and raises the issue to preserve it for possible

Supreme Court review.

* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. No. 02-20410 -2-

Castillo’s argument is indeed foreclosed by this court’s

decisions in United States v. Cavazos,

(5th Cir.), cert. denied,

(2002) and United States

v. Daugherty,

(5th Cir. 2001), cert. denied,

(2002). Accordingly, his conviction is AFFIRMED.
