Conference Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
AUBREY LEON BAILEY,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-00-CR-556-ALL
--------------------
October 25, 2001
Before WIENER, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Aubrey Leon Bailey appeals from his conviction of one count
of being a felon in possession of a firearm. He argues that the
factual basis tendered was insufficient to support his conviction
on the federal firearms charge because the interstate commerce
nexus required by 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) was not established.
“This court has repeatedly emphasized that the constitutionality
of § 922(g)(1) is not open to question.” United States v. De
Leon, 170 F.3d 494, 499 (5th Cir. 1999), cert. denied, 528 U.S.
863 (1999). The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
