Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 3:01-CR-348-1-G
--------------------
Before DAVIS, BARKSDALE, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Jose Douglas Martinez-Calero (Martinez) pleaded guilty to
being present in the United States after having been previously
deported. He argues that the district court erred in increasing
his offense level by 16 based upon his prior alien smuggling
offense. He contends that his prior conviction was for
transporting and/or harboring aliens within the United States and

did not constitute an alien smuggling offense under U.S.S.G.
§ 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(vii).
Martinez’s argument is foreclosed by United States v. Solis-
Campozano, 312 F.3d 164, 166-67 (5th Cir. 2002), pet. for cert.
filed, No. 02-9474 (March 6, 2003), which was decided after he
filed his brief. His sentence is AFFIRMED.
