reentry. See 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), (b). He maintains that the sentence violates due process because it was enhanced based on a conviction not alleged in the indictment, but he correctly concedes that his position is foreclosed by Almendarez-Torres v. United States , 523 U.S. 224, 226 − 27, 235, 247 (1998). Accordingly, the government’s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, its alternative motion for an extension of time to file its brief is DENIED, and the judgment is AFFIRMED.
