DERRICK DEON BRICE,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:14-CR-172-1


Before JONES, CLEMENT, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Derrick Deon Brice raises
arguments that are foreclosed by United States v. Alcantar, 
733 F.3d 143
, 145-
46 (5th Cir. 2013), United States v. Luna, 
165 F.3d 316
, 319 (5th Cir. 1999),
and United States v. Trejo, 
610 F.3d 308
, 312-13 (5th Cir. 2010). In Alcantar,
we rejected the argument that Nat’l Fed’n of Indep. Bus. v. Sebelius, 
132 S. Ct. 2566
(2012), affected our prior jurisprudence rejecting challenges to the


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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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

constitutionality of 18 U.S.C. § 
922(g)(1). 733 F.3d at 146
. Because § 922(j) is
substantially similar to § 922(g), the same result is reached with respect to
Brice’s challenge to it. See 
Luna, 165 F.3d at 319
. Finally, in Trejo, we applied
the plain error standard to a factual sufficiency claim that was raised for the
first time in this 
court. 610 F.3d at 313
.
      Accordingly, the Government’s motion for summary affirmance is
GRANTED, its alternative motion for extension of time is DENIED, and the
judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
