United States v. Alexander Fetters
United States v. Alexander Fetters
Opinion
*532 MEMORANDUM **
Alexander William Fetters appeals from the 300-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841 and 846. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Fetters contends that the district court procedurally erred when it failed to “inquire into the reasons for the disparity with the sentence for the ringleader of the conspiracy.” The district court acknowledged the sentence disparity, but also noted that Fetters’ criminal history was much more extensive than his coconspirators. See United States v. Treadwell, 593 F.3d 990, 1012 (9th Cir. 2010) (“sentencing disparity is only one factor a court considers in crafting an individualized sentence under § 3553(a)”)
Fetters also contends that the sentence is substantively unreasonable. In light of the totality of the circumstances and the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors, the sentence is reasonable. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007); see also United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 995-96 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).
AFFIRMED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9 th Cir. R. 36-3.
