DANIEL CASTILLO-DE LA PORTILLA, also known as Sergio Cantu-
Hernandez,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                            USDC No. 7:13-CR-1768-1


Before DAVIS, SMITH, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Daniel Castillo-De La
Portilla raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Morales-
Mota, 
704 F.3d 410
, 412 (5th Cir. 2013). In 
Morales-Mota, 704 F.3d at 412
, we
rejected the argument that the Texas offense of “burglary of a habitation” is
broader than the generic, contemporary definition of “burglary of a dwelling”



       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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: 15-40934    Document: 00513384292    Page: 2   Date Filed: 02/17/2016


                                No. 15-40934

under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii) because it defines the “owner” of a
habitation as a person with “a greater right to possession of the property than
the actor.” Accordingly, the motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and
the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
