United States v. Rodriguez-Gonzalez

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Jose Luis Rodriguez-Gonzalez appeals from the 57-month sentence imposed after his guilty-plea conviction to unlawful reentry following deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

Rodriguez-Gonzalez’s contention that the district court’s condition of supervised release requiring him to report to the probation officer within 72 hours of reentry into the United States violates his Fifth Amendment rights is foreclosed by this court’s opinion in United States v. Rodriguez-Rodriguez, 441 F.3d 767, 772-73 (9th Cir. 2006).

However, because Rodriguez-Gonzalez was sentenced under the then-mandatory Sentencing Guidelines, and we cannot reliably determine from the record whether the sentence imposed would have been materially different had the district court known that the Guidelines were advisory, we remand to the district court to answer that question, and to proceed pursuant to United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084 (9th Cir. 2005) (en banc). See United States v. Moreno-Hernandez, 419 F.3d 906, 916 (9th Cir. 2005) (extending Ameline’s limited remand procedure to cases involving non-constitutional error under United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005)).

REMANDED.
