United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit ____________ FILED August 14, 2026 No. 26-10269 Summary Calendar Lyle W. Cayce ____________ Clerk United States of America, Plaintiff—Appellee, versus Monica Renee Metcalf, Defendant—Appellant. ______________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas USDC No. 3:15-CR-87-2 ______________________________ Before Richman, Haynes, and Graves, Circuit Judges.

Per Curiam:* Monica Renee Metcalf appeals from the judgment of the district court revoking her term of supervised release and imposing a six-month term of imprisonment and an additional term of supervised release. For the first time on appeal, Metcalf argues that 18 U.S.C. § 3583(g) is unconstitutional in light of United States v. Haymond, 588 U.S. 634 (2019). However, she correctly acknowledges that her challenge is foreclosed by United States v. Garner, 969 Case: 26-10269 Document: 38-1 Page: 2 Date Filed: 08/14/2026

No. 26-10269

F.3d 550 (5th Cir. 2020). Thus, summary affirmance is proper. See Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969).

Accordingly, the Government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, its alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief is DENIED as moot, and the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
