Opinion
NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FEB 24 2015 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Nos. 14-10086 14-10087 Plaintiff - Appellee, D.C. Nos. 4:12-cr-00482-JGZ v. 4:13-cr-01104-JGZ
HERMILO GUTIERREZ-FARIAS, MEMORANDUM* Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona Jennifer G. Zipps, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted February 17, 2015**
Before: O’SCANNLAIN, LEAVY, and FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judges.
In these consolidated appeals, Hermilo Gutierrez-Farias appeals the 37-month
sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for reentry after deportation,
in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326, and the four-month consecutive sentence imposed
upon revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28
* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Gutierrez-Farias contends that the district court erred by failing to consider
adequately his request for a downward variance under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)(6). We
review for plain error, see United States v. Rangel, 697 F.3d 795, 805 (9th Cir.
2012), and find none. The record reflects that the district court considered the need
to avoid unwarranted sentencing disparities and sufficiently explained the sentence.
See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 992 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).
AFFIRMED.
