    BORMIO INVESTMENTS, INCORPORATED, Plaintiff-Appellant v. U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee for CitiGroup Mortgage Loan Trust 2007-WFHE4, Asset-Backed Pass Through Certificates, Series 2007-WFHE4, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 14-10548
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    Sept. 22, 2014.
    Mark A. Swaim, Swaim Law Office, Irving, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellant.
    Thomas A. Connop, Esq., Daron L. Janis, Esq., Locke Lord, L.L.P., Dallas, TX, for Defendant-Appellee.
    Before KING, JOLLY, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

In this case alleging violations of the Texas constitution arising from a mortgage transaction, Bormio Investments appeals from the district court’s final judgment granting Defendant’s motion for summary judgment based upon the statute of limitations. The parties acknowledge our decision in Priester v. JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., 708 F.3d 667, 673-74 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S. —, 134 S.Ct. 196, 187 L.Ed.2d 256 (2013) holding that the statute of limitations for such claims is four years under Texas law. More than four years passed between the date of the alleged violations and the date the lawsuit was filed. Therefore, Defendant argues that Priester is dispositive and that Bormio’s appeal is frivolous. Defendant filed a motion seeking sanctions for a frivolous appeal.

For its part, Bormio does not dispute that if Priester applies, the statute of limitations has run. Instead, it argues that the subsequent Texas Supreme Court case of Finance Commission of Texas v. Norwood, 418 S.W.3d 566 (Tex.2014) demonstrates that Priester was wrongly decided. Although Norwood addresses the same section of the Texas constitution as the one at issue here, it has nothing to do with the statute of limitations. Id. Neither party has cited, and we have not located, any case that would represent an intervening change in the law allowing us to reconsider Priester; accordingly, under our rule of orderliness, we are bound by Priester. See Jacobs v. Nat’l Drug Intelligence Ctr., 548 F.3d 375 (5th Cir.2008)(“It is a well-settled Fifth Circuit rule of orderliness that one panel of our court may not overturn another panel’s decision, absent an intervening change in the law....”). The district court did not err in granting a summary judgment to Defendant.

Although we caution Bormio’s attorneys not to file frivolous appeals, we conclude that sanctions are not warranted in this case. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. The motion for sanctions on appeal is DENIED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
