UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Preston Joseph ROBINSON, Defendant-Appellant, 178 F. App'x 417

ON REMAND FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES PER CURIAM: This court affirmed the sentence of Preston Joseph Robinson. United States v. Robinson, 115 Fed.Appx. 259 (5th Cir. 2004). 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). Robinson v. United States, 544 U.S. 995, 125 S.Ct. 1949, 161 L.Ed.2d 765 (2005). This court requested and received supplemental letter briefs addressing the impact of Booker.

Robinson argues that the district court erred under Booker in enhancing his sentence based on facts not admitted by him or found by a jury and in sentencing him under the mandatory guideline scheme held unconstitutional in Booker. Our review is for plain error due to his failure to raise an appropriate objection in the district court. See United States v. Mares, 402 F.3d 511, 520 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S. —, 126 S.Ct. 43, 163 L.Ed.2d 76 (2005).

Under the plain error standard of review, the appellant must show that (1) there is an error (2) that is clear or obvious and (3) that affects his substantial rights. United States v. Olano, 507 U.S. 725, 731-37, 113 S.Ct. 1770, 123 L.Ed.2d 508 (1993). If these factors are established, the decision to correct the forfeited error is within this court’s sound discretion, which will not be exercised unless the error seriously affects the fairness, integrity, or public reputation of judicial proceedings. Id. at 736.

The district court’s enhancement of Robinson’s sentence pursuant to a mandatory guideline scheme based on facts that were not found by a jury or admitted by him constituted error that was plain. See Mares, 402 F.3d at 520-21. Robinson argues that the error affected his substantial rights because it was structural or because prejudice should be presumed. However, these arguments are foreclosed. See United States v. Malveaux, 411 F.3d 558, 560 n. 9 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S. —, 126 S.Ct. 194, 163 L.Ed.2d 209 (2005).

Because the record does not show that Robinson likely would have received a more lenient sentence if the district court had acted under an advisory sentencing system, Robinson has not shown that the district court’s error affected his substantial rights. See Mares, 402 F.3d at 521. Nothing in the Supreme Court’s Booker decision requires us to change our prior affirmance in this case. Accordingly, we reinstate that affirmance. The judgment of the district court is 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.
