United States v. Eugene Patterson

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit January 22, 2014

United States v. Eugene Patterson, 552 F. App'x 745 (9th Cir. 2014)

Opinion

*746 MEMORANDUM **

Eugene P. Patterson appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges his guilty-plea conviction for assault on a federal officer, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 111(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Patterson challenges the district court’s denial of his motion to withdraw his guilty plea. The district court did not abuse its discretion in determining that Patterson had failed to demonstrate a fair and just reason for requesting withdrawal of his plea. See Fed.R.Crim.P. 11(d)(2)(B); United States v. Ortegar-Ascanio, 376 F.3d 879, 883 (9th Cir. 2004) (stating standard of review).

AFFIRMED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
