for summary affirmance, or alternatively, for an extension of time in which to file a brief.
The Government is correct that Hymes’s challenge is foreclosed. See United States v. Diaz, 116 F.4th 458, 471-72 (5th Cir. 2024). Therefore, summary affirmance is appropriate. See Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969). The motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, the alternative motion for an extension of time is DENIED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
