ORDER AND JUDGMENT **

Mario Ochoa Olivas pleaded guilty to being found in the United States after *894 having been convicted of an aggravated felony and previously deported, 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), (b)(2). He was sentenced to 41 months imprisonment and three years’ supervised release; at the end of his imprisonment, he is to be surrendered to immigration officials for deportation. Mr. Ochoa Olivas appeals from the denial of his motion for downward departure under U.S.S.G. § 5K2.0. Mr. Ochoa sought a downward departure, arguing that his case presented unique circumstances in that he had been advised by someone he believed to be an attorney that he could lawfully remain in the United States. III R. (PSR) 111178-86. Mr. Ochoa argued for a downward departure on this basis independently of whether the government moved for one based upon substantial assistance, U.S.S.G. § 5K1.1. The government declined to move for a substantial assistance departure. Ill R. 11 87.

We have reviewed the transcript of the sentencing hearing. We only have jurisdiction to review a district court’s refusal to depart when the district court “concludes that an entire class of circumstances never constitutes the basis for a downward departure.” United States v. Castillo, 140 F.3d 874, 888 (10th Cir. 1998). Where the district court exercises its discretion to depart based upon the circumstances of a defendant’s case, as happened here, we lack jurisdiction. United States v. Browning, 252 F.3d 1153, 1160-61 (10th Cir. 2001). The district court not only found that “no departure is warranted under the facts of this case,” II R. 17, but also considered those actual facts-even if Mr. Ochoa Olivas was given incorrect advice in January 2001, he still had to enter the country unlawfully, II R. 18. Contrary to Defendant’s argument, this is not a categorical denial, but rather a consideration of the Defendant’s circumstances that surrounded the defective advice.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
