NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MAY 29 2019 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 16-10439 Plaintiff-Appellee, D.C. No. 4:16-cr-00153-HSG-1 v. MEMORANDUM* JESSE DAVID HARTMAN, Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California Haywood S. Gilliam, Jr., District Judge, Presiding Submitted May 21, 2019** Before: THOMAS, Chief Judge, FRIEDLAND and BENNETT, Circuit Judges.

Jesse David Hartman appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges the 63-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

Hartman contends that the district court erred in determining that his prior conviction for assault with a deadly weapon in violation of California Penal Code § 245(a)(1) is a categorical crime of violence under U.S.S.G. §§ 2K2.1(a)(4)(A) and 4B1.2(a)(1). Hartman’s argument is foreclosed by United States v. Vasquez- Gonzalez, 901 F.3d 1060, 1065-68 (9th Cir. 2018), which was decided after the briefing in this case was complete. In Vasquez-Gonzalez, this court held that section 245(a)(1) is a categorical crime of violence under 18 U.S.C. § 16(a), which is materially identical to § 4B1.2(a)(1). See id. at 1068; see also United States v. Werle, 877 F.3d 879, 883-84 (9th Cir. 2017) (stating that the language of § 16(a) “largely mirrors” the language of § 4B1.2(a)(1)). Accordingly, Vasquez-Gonzalez controls here and the district court did not err in determining that Hartman’s prior assault conviction is a categorical crime of violence.

AFFIRMED.
