          Appeal from the United States District Court
                for the Western District of Texas
                      USDC No. 2:04-CR-535-1
                       --------------------

Before JONES, Chief Judge, and SMITH and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Appealing the Judgment in a Criminal Case, Jose Rene Ramos-

Carabantes raises arguments that are foreclosed by United States

v. Rueda-Rivera, 

, 680 (5th Cir. 2005), which held

that the admission of a certificate of nonexistence of record,

which reflected that the deported defendant had not received

consent to reenter the United States, did not violate a

defendant's rights under the Confrontation Clause.     The

Government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, and the

judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.

     *
       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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.
