United States v. Laymon McGauhey, III

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Laymon Parker McGauhey III appeals from the 235-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for transportation of child pornography, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(l). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

McGauhey contends the district court abused its discretion by imposing a sentence consecutive to his Nevada state sen *781 tence of life with parole eligibility after 120 months because the 235-month consecutive sentence is greater than necessary to accomplish the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) goals and is therefore substantively unreasonable. In light of the totality of the circumstances of this case and the § 3553(a) sentencing factors, the sentence is not substantively unreasonable. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007); United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991-93 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).

AFFIRMED.
