United States v. Rocha
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Judas Preciado Rocha appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea conviction for felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1).
Rocha first claims that his sentence is unreasonable because the district judge rejected his request for a probationary sentence with intermittent confinement which would allow him to keep his job. The district judge explicitly considered probation and the possibility that Rocha might lose his job and decided that a probationary sentence was insufficient under the other factors in § 3553.
Rocha also argues that the district court failed to make an adequate Rule 32 ruling on the number of guns that Rocha possessed.
AFFIRMED.
