Plaintiff—Appellee,

versus

Xzavion Dayshaun Ragsdale,

Defendant—Appellant. ______________________________

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas USDC No. 2:15-CR-72-1 ______________________________

Before Richman, Southwick, and Willett, Circuit Judges. Per Curiam: * Xzavion Dayshaun Ragsdale appeals the 10-month sentence imposed upon the revocation of his term of supervised release. For the first time on appeal, he contends that the district court plainly erred by considering his breach of trust when imposing the revocation sentence.

No. 25-11304

Because revocation here was mandatory, we reject Ragsdale’s arguments. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(g)(1); United States v. Illies, 805 F.3d 607, 609 (5th Cir. 2015). Because our “summary affirmance procedure is generally reserved for cases in which the parties concede that the issues are foreclosed by circuit precedent,” and Ragsdale does not make that concession, we DENY the Government’s motion for summary affirmance. See United States v. Monshizadeh, 679 F.App’x 359, 360 (5th Cir. 2017)(discussing Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969)). Nevertheless, we dispense with further briefing and also DENY the Government’s alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief. See United States v. Bailey, 924 F.3d 1289, 1290 (5th Cir. 2019). We find no error in the district court’s sentencing and AFFIRM.
