Jose Nelson Maldonado pleaded guilty to unlawful reentry into the United States following deportation and was sentenced to 46 months of imprisonment. He contends that the district court erred in refusing to depart downward on grounds of cultural assimilation. The record reflects that the downward departure was denied because the district court believed it was unwarranted based on the facts of this case. We *243 lack jurisdiction to review this ruling. See United States v. Hernandez, 457 F.3d 416, 424 (5th Cir. 2006).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
