United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Kathlyn Giannaula Snyder and James Lee Turner, Asst. U.S. Attys., Houston, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

Roland E. Dahlin, II, Federal Public Defender, Laura Fletcher Leavitt, Asst. Federal Public Defender, Houston, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.

Before JOLLY, JONES and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:

Marcelo Mancia-Perez ("Mancia") appeals his bench-trial conviction for illegal reentry after deportation following an aggravated felony. He argues that the district court abused its discretion when it dismissed the original indictment without prejudice for violation of the Speedy Trial Act, and that the "felony" and "aggravated felony" provisions in 8 U.S.C. §§ 1326(b)(1) and (b)(2) are unconstitutional. We AFFIRM.
