MEMORANDUM *

The facts are known to the parties. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. § 3742. We review for an abuse of discretion. See United States v. Crowe, 563 F.3d 969, 977 (9th Cir. 2009). We affirm.

The defendant argues that the district court misinterpreted the cultural assimilation departure provision, U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, application note 8, when it issued a 35-month sentence to his conviction under 8 U.S.C. §§ 1326(a) and (b)(2) for illegally reentering the United States. Defendant supposes the misinterpretation occurred when the district court failed to distinguish ordinary from culturally motivated economic incentives. However, the 35-month sentence is 11-months below the undisputed guideline range of 46 to 57 months. To reach the 35-month sentence, the district court accepted the defendant’s argument as to the applicability of the cultural assimilation departure provision. Moreover, there is no evidence on the record that the district court abused its discretion in failing to distinguish ordinary from culturally motivated economic incentives.

AFFIRMED.
