NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS NOV 27 2024 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 24-2327 D.C. No. 1:07-cr-00271-DCN-1 Plaintiff - Appellee,

v. MEMORANDUM* GRACIANO MARQUEZ-HUAZO,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Idaho David C. Nye, District Judge, Presiding

Submitted November 20, 2024**

Before: CANBY, TALLMAN, and CLIFTON, Circuit Judges.

Graciano Marquez-Huazo appeals pro se from the district court’s order

denying his motion for compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i).

We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Marquez-Huazo contends that compassionate release is warranted because

* 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). his 18 U.S.C § 924(c) conviction is infirm and he has participated in various

rehabilitative programs while incarcerated. Contrary to Marquez-Huazo’s

contention, the record reflects that the district court considered and adequately

addressed these arguments. See Chavez-Meza v. United States, 585 U.S. 109, 115-

17 (2018). The district court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that

Marquez-Huazo did not show extraordinary and compelling reasons for

compassionate release. See United States v. Keller, 2 F.4th 1278, 1281 (9th Cir.

2021). Nor did it abuse its discretion in concluding that the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)

factors, including Marquez-Huazo’s participation in a large-scale

methamphetamine distribution conspiracy, weighed against release. See id. at

1284.

AFFIRMED.
