United States v. Ray

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
United States v. Ray, 190 F. App'x 580 (9th Cir. 2006)

United States v. Ray

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Victoria L. Ray appeals from the sentence imposed upon her following the revocation of supervised release. We have ju*581risdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Ray contends that the imposition of a prison term upon revocation of supervised release which, combined with the original prison term, exceeds the sentence recommended by the United States Sentencing Guidelines, violates the Sixth Amendment. We reject this contention because the sentencing guidelines provide advisory sentences, not statutory maximum sentences. See United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 245-46, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005).

We also reject Ray’s contention that the revocation of supervised release constitutes judicial fact-finding in violation of the Sixth Amendment. See United States v. Huerta-Pimental, 445 F.3d 1220 (9th Cir. 2006).

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.
