Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. 7:15-CR-971-1

Before JONES, CLEMENT, and OWEN, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: * Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Oscar Mata-Alvarez raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Rodriguez, 711 F.3d 541, 562-63 & n.28 (5th Cir. 2013) (en banc), in which we held that the generic, contemporary definition of sexual abuse of a minor does not require the age of consent to be below 17 years old and does not include an age-differential requirement. He also raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States

* 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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: 15-41504 Document: 00513557281 Page: 2 Date Filed: 06/21/2016

No. 15-41504

v. Elizondo-Hernandez, 755 F.3d 779, 781-82 (5th Cir. 2014), which held that the Texas offense of indecency with a child by contact satisfied the generic definition of sexual abuse of a minor. Accordingly, the motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
