United States v. Santiesteban-Hernandez, __ F.3d __, 2006 WL 3072564 (5th Cir. Oct. 31, 2006) (Texas conviction for violation of Penal Code 29.02(a)(1), robbery, is a crime of violence for illegal re-entry sentencing purposes, since the "crime of violence" definition, U.S.S.G. 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii), specifically includes "robbery" convictions, and the Texas offense falls within the generic definition of "robbery" [requiring theft and immediate danger to
a person]).
