UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Jose Luis MENDOZA-NARANJO, Defendant-Appellant, 477 F. App'x 460

MEMORANDUM Jose Luis Mendoza-Naranjo appeals from the two-year sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a deported alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. Mendoza-Naranjo contends that the district court procedurally erred by failing to consider the Sentencing Guidelines, failing to consider all of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(

a) sentencing factors, and not adequately explaining the basis for its upward variance from the Guidelines range. The record belies these contentions. The district court considered the Guidelines and the

section 3553(

a) factors, and adequately explained the sentence imposed. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991-92 (9th Cir.2008) (en banc). Mendoza-Naranjo also contends that his above-Guidelines sentence is substantively unreasonable because it is greater than necessary to satisfy the purposes of

section 3553(a). The sentence imposed is substantively reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances and the

section 3553(

a) sentencing factors. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007). AFFIRMED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
