Juan Andrade was sentenced to 120 months of imprisonment following his guilty plea to a charge of possession of a firearm by a felon. For the first time on appeal, he challenges a condition of supervised release included in his written judgment. The Government has filed an unopposed motion for summary affirmance, arguing that Andrades argument is foreclosed.
Summary affirmance is appropriate if “the position of one of the parties is clearly right as a matter of law so that there can be no substantial question as to the outcome of the case.” Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis, 406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969). The Government is correct that Andrades challenge to his condition of supervised release is foreclosed. See United States v. Diggles, 957 F.3d 551, 560-61 (5th Cir.) (en banc), cert. denied, ––– U.S. ––––, ––– S.Ct. ––––, ––– L.Ed.2d ––––, 2020 WL 6551832 (U.S. Nov. 9, 2020) (No. 20-5836); United States v. Grogan, 977 F.3d 348, 353-54 (5th Cir. 2020). Accordingly, the Governments motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, the Governments alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief is DENIED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
