                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Western District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:14-CR-30-1


Before DAVIS, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Jose De La Cruz Saenz-
Aranda raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States v. Teran-Salas,

, 458-62 (5th Cir. 2014), cert. denied, 

(2015). In
Teran-Salas, we determined that the appellant was not entitled to relief based
merely on the existence of a theoretical possibility that the defendant could be
convicted under Texas Health & Safety Code § 481.112(a) for conduct that


       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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. 14-50517

would not qualify as a federal drug trafficking offense. See 

. Saenz-Aranda has not demonstrated “a realistic probability that
Texas would prosecute under an ‘administering’ theory in a way that does not
also constitute either ‘dispensing’ or ‘distributing’ under the federal sentencing
guidelines.” 

Accordingly, the Government’s motion for summary
affirmance is GRANTED, the alternative motion for an extension of time to file
a brief is DENIED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
