No. 13-40975
“burglary of a habitation” is outside the generic, contemporary definition of
“burglary of a dwelling” under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii) because it defines
the “owner” of a habitation as a person with a “greater right to possession.”
Accordingly, Estrada-Rodriguez’s unopposed motion for summary disposition
is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
