No. 24-30542

U.S. 1 (2022). The Government has filed an unopposed motion for summary affirmance or, alternatively, for an extension of time to file a brief.

Elliott’s constitutional challenge to § 922(g)(1) is foreclosed. See United States v. Diaz, 116 F.4th 458, 471–72 (5th Cir. 2024), petition for cert. filed (U.S. Feb. 24, 2025) (No. 24-6625). Because the Government’s position “is clearly right as a matter of law so that there can be no substantial question as to the outcome of the case,” summary affirmance is appropriate. See Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969).

Accordingly, the Government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, the alternative motion for an extension of time is DENIED, and the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
