United States v. Santiago Curiel
United States v. Santiago Curiel
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Santiago Curiel appeals from the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for a reduction of sentence. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Curiel contends that the district court erred in denying his motion because it had authority to relieve him of his career offender status and then resentence him pursuant to the retroactive amendments to the crack cocaine Sentencing Guidelines. The district court did not err in rejecting these arguments. See United States v. Leniear, 574 F.3d 668, 673 (9th Cir. 2009); see also United States v. Wesson, 583 F.3d 728, 731 (9th Cir. 2009).
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9 th Cir. R. 36-3.
