No. 18-40067 States v. Guillen-Alvarez, 489 F.3d 197 (5th Cir. 2007), but he argues that Guillen-Alvarez is contrary to other circuit decisions on this issue. This court is bound by its own precedent unless and until it is altered by the Supreme Court. See Wicker v. McCotter, 798 F.2d 155, 157-58 (5th Cir. 1986).

Accordingly, the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
