United States v. Napier Valdez-Brito

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
United States v. Napier Valdez-Brito, 401 F. App'x 225 (9th Cir. 2010)

United States v. Napier Valdez-Brito

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Napier Valdez-Brito appeals from his 41-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for attempted entry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Valdez-Brito contends that the sentence imposed by the district court was greater than necessary to accomplish the purposes of sentencing set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). The record reflects that the district court thoroughly considered the § 3553(a) sentencing factors, and provided a well-reasoned explanation for the sentence imposed. The district court did not procedurally err, and the sentence was substantively reasonable under the totality of the circumstances. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007); see also United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991-93 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).

AFFIRMED.
