Case: 17-11094 Document: 00514490244 Page: 1 Date Filed: 05/29/2018 IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT No. 17-11094 Summary Calendar United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit FILED May 29, 2018 Lyle W. Cayce Clerk UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee v. LUIS ANTONIO IBARRA, Defendant-Appellant Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas USDC No. 3:16-CR-150-1 Before CLEMENT, COSTA, and WILLETT, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: * Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Luis Antonio Ibarra raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States v. Gonzales, 40 F.3d 735 (5th Cir. 1994), abrogated on other grounds by United States v. Dunigan, 555 F.3d 501, 504-06 & n.7 (5th Cir. 2009). In Gonzales, 40 F.3d at 737-38, we held that the Supreme Court’s decision in United States v. Dixon, 509 U.S. 688 (1993), did not overrule Missouri v. Hunter, 459 U.S. 359, 368-69 (1983). Ibarra 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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: 17-11094 Document: 00514490244 Page: 2 Date Filed: 05/29/2018 No. 17-11094 also raises an argument that is foreclosed by our decision in United States v. Alcantar, 733 F.3d 143, 145-46 (5th Cir. 2013), which rejected a challenge to § 922(g) under Nat’l Fed’n of Indep. Bus. v. Sebelius, 567 U.S. 519, 551-53 (2012). Additionally, Ibarra raises an argument that is foreclosed by United States Rawls, 85 F.3d 240, 242-43 (5th Cir. 1996), in which we held that proof of a firearm’s manufacture in another state satisfies the interstate commerce element of § 922(g). Finally, our decision in United States v. Rose, 587 F.3d 695, 705-06 (5th Cir. 2009), forecloses Ibarra’s argument that knowledge of the interstate nexus is an element of the offense under § 922(g). Accordingly, the motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. 2
