UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff−Appellee, v. Emory Dickson ENEH, Defendant−Appellant.
Emory Eneh appeals his convictions of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Through counsel, Eneh has filed an unopposed motion for summary disposition. He maintains that § 922(g) is unconstitutional because it regulates conduct that falls outside Congress’s powers under the Commerce Clause. He concedes that the argument, which he raises for the first time on appeal, was rejected in United States v. Alcantar, 733 F.3d 143, 145–46 (5th Cir. 2013), and is foreclosed. He raises the point solely to preserve it for possible further review.
The motion for summary disposition is GRANTED, and the judgment is AFFIRMED. See Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969).
