United States v. Jones
United States v. Jones
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
James Lee Jones appeals the 24-month sentence imposed following revocation of his supervised release. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1291, and we vacate and remand for resentencing.
Jones contends, and the government concedes, the district court erred by failing to state its reason for imposing a sentence outside of the applicable range of 3 to 9 months set forth in Sentencing Guidelines § 7B1.4(a). Because Jones failed to raise the objection to his sentence in the district court, we review for plain error. See United States v. Vences, 169 F.3d 611, 613 (9th Cir. 1999).
VACATED and REMANDED.
