v.

FRANK MORALES,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                  Appeals from the United States District Court
                       for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:13-CR-93-1


Before REAVLEY, SMITH, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Frank Morales raises an
argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United States v. Hernandez, 
633 F.3d 370
, 374 (5th Cir. 2011), which held that a sentence within the statutory
maximum that is based upon judicially found facts does not violate the Sixth
Amendment. Accordingly, the unopposed motion for summary disposition 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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.
