Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. 2:15-CR-661-1

Before DENNIS, PRADO, and OWEN, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: * Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Juan Castro-Castro raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Gonzalez-Longoria, 831 F.3d 670, 672 (5th Cir. 2016) (en banc), petition for cert. filed (Sept. 29, 2016) (No. 16-6259). In Gonzalez-Longoria, we held that 18 U.S.C. § 16(b), which defines a crime of violence when incorporated by reference into U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(C), is not unconstitutionally vague on its face in light of Johnson

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. Case: 15-41722 Document: 00513804071 Page: 2 Date Filed: 12/20/2016
