UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Jimmy DE LUNA-VIGIL, Defendant-Appellant, 155 F. App'x 114

ON REMAND FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES PER CURIAM: This court affirmed the sentence of Jimmy De Luna-Vigil. See United States v. De Luna-Vigil, 87 Fed.Appx. 976 (5th Cir. 2004) (unpublished). The Supreme Court vacated and remanded for further consideration in light of United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). Newsome v. United States, — U.S. —, 125 S.Ct. 1112, 160 L.Ed.2d 989 (2005). We requested and received supplemental letter briefs addressing the impact of Booker.

The Government argues that this appeal is moot because Vigil was released from prison on January 27, 2004. Vigil contends that his appeal still presents a live issue because he is on supervised release until January 27, 2007.

Article III, § 2 of the Constitution requires that a “ ‘case or controversy ... subsistí ] through all stages of federal judicial proceedings, trial and appellate.’ ” See Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 7, 118 S.Ct. 978, 140 L.Ed.2d 43 (1998); see also United States v. Clark, 193 F.3d 845, 847 (5th Cir.1999). This requirement is met because Vigil is still subject to supervised release, a part of his total sentence. See United States v. Gonzalez, 250 F.3d 923, 928 (5th Cir.2001).

Vigil’s argument that the district court’s mandatory application of the Guidelines is “structural,” and “presumptively prejudicial,” thus obviating the need for a specific showing of prejudice, has been rejected as inconsistent with this court’s analysis in United States v. Mares, 402 F.3d 511 (5th Cir.), cert. denied — U.S. —, 126 S.Ct. 43, 163 L.Ed.2d 76 (2005). See United States v. Martinez-Lugo, 411 F.3d 597, 601 (5th Cir.2005); United States v. Malveaux, 411 F.3d 558, 561 n. 9 (5th Cir.2005), cert. denied — U.S. —, 126 S.Ct. 194, 163 L.Ed.2d 209 (2005).

Vigil’ alternative argument, that the district court’s mandatory application of the Guidelines constitutes plain error, also lacks merit. This court will not consider a Boo/cer-related challenge raised for the first time in a petition for certiorari absent extraordinary circumstances. United States v. Taylor, 409 F.3d 675, 676 (5th Cir.2005). Vigil’s argument that the record suggests that the district court may have imposed a lesser sentence under an advisory guideline system is refuted by the record.

Since Vigil has not demonstrated plain error, “it is obvious that the much more demanding standard for extraordinary circumstances, warranting review of an issue raised for the first time in a petition for certiorari, cannot be satisfied.” See Taylor, 409 F.3d at 677. Because nothing in the Supreme Court’s Booker decision requires us to change our prior affirmance in this case, we reinstate our judgment affirming Vigil’s conviction and sentence. AFFIRMED. Pursuant to 5th Cir.

R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
