MEMORANDUM *

Adan Guerrero-Flores appeals from his 27-month sentence, which the district court imposed after making an eight-level aggravated felony enhancement for his pri- or North Carolina conviction for taking indecent liberties with a child in violation of North Carolina General Statute § 14-202.1. Guerrero-Flores contends the enhancement should have been only four levels because the record did not support the aggravated felony enhancement. The government cross appeals, claiming that the district court should have imposed a sixteen-level enhancement for a “crime of violence.”

The government commendably acknowledged in oral argument that the eight-level enhancement was fair under the circumstances. Were we to vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing, Guerrero-Flores would face the risk of a sixteen-level enhancement, even though the prison term of the existing sentence has almost expired.

We have carefully reviewed the record below and the arguments presented to us on appeal. We conclude there is no sound reason to vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing or to grant the government’s motion that this court take judicial notice of matters outside this record.

The motion for judicial notice is DENIED and the judgment and sentence of the district court is AFFIRMED.
