MEMORANDUM **

Isaiah Thomas Follet appeals from the 60-month sentence and lifetime term of supervised release imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for failure to register as a sex offender, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2250(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Follet contends that the district court erred by imposing a sentence above the Guidelines range after simultaneously applying an upward departure based on the inadequacy of his criminal history category, and imposing an upward variance pursuant to the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors. The record reflects that the district court did not procedurally err and that the sentence is substantively reasonable. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 50-51, 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); United States v. Mohamed, 459 F.3d 979, 988-89 (9th Cir. 2006).

Follet also contends that the district court’s imposition of a lifetime term of supervised release was unreasonable. We conclude that the district court was within its discretion to find that a lifetime term of supervised release was necessary to comply with the statutory goals of sentencing. See United States v. Daniels, 541 F.3d 915, 921-24 (9th Cir. 2008).

AFFIRMED.
