UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. Che Lamar ROMERO, also known as Alvaro Vega Valesquez, also known as Joseph Garcia, Appellant, 131 F. App'x 503

PER CURIAM. Che Lamar Romero attacks only the reasonableness of his sentence for an attempted carjacking and for being a felon in possession of a firearm. Romero has no quarrel that his base offense level was properly increased because a firearm was used during the attempted carjacking and a victim was abducted to facilitate the offense. He also acknowledges that the district court correctly determined that his sentencing range was 188-235 months.

Although the sentence imposed falls within the negotiated sentencing range contemplated by Romero’s plea agreement, he contends the district court abused its discretion when it sentenced him at the top of the sentencing range. We disagree. Having carefully reviewed the record and the factors in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), we conclude the district court did not abuse its discretion and Romero’s 235-month sentence is reasonable. We note Romero did not raise any argument under United States v. Booker, -— U.S.-, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), and affirm Romero’s sentence. The Honorable Ann D.

Montgomery, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota.
