United States v. Mario Lopez-Vega

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Mario Lopez-Vega appeals from the 84-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for re-entry after deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Mario Lopez-Vega contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable, given his difficult life and the impact violence, drugs, and alcohol have had on his emotional and mental health. In light of the totality of the circumstances and the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), the district court’s 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, 993-94 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).

AFFIRMED.
