United States v. Lorenzo-macial
United States v. Lorenzo-macial
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Adalix Lorenzo-Macial appeals from the 46-month sentence imposed following his *802 guilty-plea conviction for illegal reentry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Lorenzo-Macial contends that the district court erred at sentencing by: (1) misconstruing its authority to vary from the Guidelines range in the absence of extraordinary circumstances; (2) failing to consider his mitigating circumstances; and (3) declining to impose a lower sentence in order to achieve parity with fast-track defendants. The record indicates that the district court did not procedurally err. See United Staten v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 994-96 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc); see also United States v. Gonzalez-Zotelo, 556 F.3d 736, 739-40 (9th Cir. 2009).
Lorenzo-Macial also contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable in light of his mitigating personal circumstances and the age of a prior conviction that was the basis for a 16-level enhancement, pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii). The sentence imposed is substantively reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51-52, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007); cf. United States v. Amezcua-Vasquez, 567 F.3d 1050, 1055-56 (9th Cir. 2009).
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
