United States v. Caballos-Ramirez
United States v. Caballos-Ramirez
Opinion
Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Jose Luis Caballos-Ramirez raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States v. Murillo-Lopez, 444 F.3d 337, 344-45 (5th Cir. 2006), which held that a California conviction for burglary of an inhabited dwelling house was equivalent to burglary of a dwelling and therefore was a crime of violence under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, and by Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224, 235, 118 S.Ct. 1219, 140 L.Ed.2d 350 (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 affir-mance is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
