Per Curiam: * Gary Charles Moore pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm after a felony conviction in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). For the first time on appeal, he argues that § 922(g)(1) violates the Second Amendment as applied to him. The Government has filed an unopposed motion for summary affirmance or, alternatively, for an extension of time in which to file a brief.

No. 24-10903

The Government is correct that the sole issue on appeal is foreclosed on plain error review. See United States v. Cisneros, 130 F.4th 472, 477 (5th Cir. 2025). Because summary affirmance is appropriate here, see Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969), the Government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, the alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief is DENIED, and the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
