v.

OLIVERIO VALENCIA-GARCIA, also known as Oliverio Garcia Valencia, also
known as Oliverio Garza Valencia, also known as Oliverio Valencia Garcia,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant


                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 4:14-CR-203-1


Before DAVIS, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Oliverio Valencia-Garcia
raises an argument that he concedes is foreclosed by United States v. Morales-
Mota, 
704 F.3d 410
, 412 (5th Cir. 2013), which rejected the argument that the
Texas offense of “burglary of a habitation” is broader than the generic,
contemporary definition of “burglary of a dwelling” under U.S.S.G.



       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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: 14-20708    Document: 00513079121     Page: 2   Date Filed: 06/16/2015


                                 No. 14-20708

§ 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.
