NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS DEC 5 2018 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 17-55305

Plaintiff-Appellee, D.C. Nos. 3:16-cv-01384-DMS 3:10-cr-04732-DMS v.

DOMINIQUE DONTAE LASKER, MEMORANDUM*

Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California Dana M. Sabraw, District Judge, Presiding

Submitted November 27, 2018**

Before: CANBY, TASHIMA, and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judges.

The stay issued in this appeal on January 26, 2018, is lifted.

Dominique Dontae Lasker appeals from the district court’s judgment

denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to vacate. We have jurisdiction under 28

U.S.C. § 2253, and we affirm.

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). Lasker contends that his armed bank robbery conviction under 18 U.S.C.

§ 2113(a), (d) does not qualify as a predicate crime of violence under 18 U.S.C.

§ 924(c). This argument is foreclosed. See United States v. Watson, 881 F.3d 782

(9th Cir.), cert. denied, 139 S. Ct. 203 (2018).

AFFIRMED.
