                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                         for the Western District of Texas
                             USDC No. 3:09-CR-2062-1


Before JOLLY, GARZA and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        Following a bench trial on stipulated facts, Cedric Binion was convicted of
one charge of failing to register as a sex offender and was sentenced to serve
30 months in prison. We are now presented with Binion’s challenge to this
conviction.    His first argument is that the evidence adduced at trial was
insufficient to convict him of knowingly failing to register in accordance with Sex
Offender Registration and Notification Act. This argument is substantially
similar to others that we have rejected in the past and is unavailing. See United

       *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .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.

                                No. 10-50050

States v. Whaley, 
577 F.3d 254
, 262 and n.6 (5th Cir. 2009); see also United
States v. Heth, 
596 F.3d 255
, 258 (5th Cir. 2010). Binion’s Commerce Clause and
Due Process arguments are, as he concedes, foreclosed. See 
Heth, 596 F.3d at 259-60
; 
Whaley, 577 F.3d at 258-62
. The judgment of the district court is
AFFIRMED.
