No. 21-50769 c/w No. 21-50778 Francisco Javier Galvan-Silva appeals his conviction and sentence for illegal reentry in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a) and (b)(2) as well as the revocation of the term of supervised release he was serving at the time of the offense. He has not briefed, and has therefore abandoned, any challenge to the revocation of supervised release or his revocation sentence. See United States v. Reagan, 596 F.3d 251, 254-55 (5th Cir. 2010).

For the first time on appeal, Galvan-Silva contends that the enhancement of his sentence pursuant to § 1326(b) was unconstitutional because the fact of a prior conviction was not charged and proved to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. He has filed an unopposed motion for summary disposition and a letter brief explaining that he raises this issue only to preserve it for further review and conceding correctly that it is foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224 (1998). See United States v. Pervis, 937 F.3d 546, 553-54 (5th Cir. 2019). Because summary disposition is appropriate, see Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969), Galvan-Silva’s motion is GRANTED, and the district court’s judgments are AFFIRMED.
