Summary Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
DEMPSEY CLOMAN,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Louisiana
USDC No. 3:04-CR-30005-ALL
--------------------
Before DeMOSS, STEWART, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Dempsey Cloman pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession
of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Pursuant to
18 U.S.C. § 924(e), he received an enhanced sentence of 188
months of imprisonment, to be followed by a five-year term of
supervised release.
Cloman argues that the district court erred in counting his
convictions for two December 1989 residential burglaries,
committed six days apart, as separate offenses for purposes of
§ 924(e). The district court did not so err. See United States
*
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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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. 06-30462
-2-
v. White,
465 F.3d 250, 253 (5th Cir. 2006); United States v.
Medina-Gutierrez,
980 F.2d 980, 982-83 (5th Cir. 1992). Cloman
does not argue that his aggravated arson conviction was not a
qualifying predicate offense for purposes of § 924(e).
Consequently, we need not consider his argument that his two
convictions for burglary of a high school were not qualifying
predicate offenses for § 924(e) purposes.
Cloman invites us to overrule the precedent set in United
States v. Armstead,
114 F.3d 504, 512 (5th Cir. 1997), that
possession of a firearm during a burglary has been held to be “in
connection with” the burglary for purposes of U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1.
It is the firm rule of this circuit that one panel may not
overrule the decisions of another without en banc consideration
or an intervening Supreme Court opinion. See Hogue v. Johnson,
131 F.3d 466, 491 (5th Cir. 1997).
AFFIRMED.
