United States v. Magallenes-Gil
United States v. Magallenes-Gil
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Juan Magallenes-Gil appeals from his guilty plea conviction to importation of cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 960. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Magallenes-Gil contends that the district court’s failure during his guilty plea colloquy to ascertain whether he had been subjected to threats or promises and to recite the precise elements of the offense merit vacating his guilty plea. A review of the record demonstrates that MagallenesGil has not shown a “reasonable probability that, but for the error, he would not have entered the plea.” See United States v. Dominguez Benitez, 542 U.S. 74, 83, 124 S.Ct. 2333, 159 L.Ed.2d 157 (2004). Accordingly, we affirm.
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
