MEMORANDUM

Juan Olibas-Valenzuela appeals from the 12-month sentence imposed upon revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 , and we vacate and remand for resentencing.

Olibas-Valenzuela contends that the supervised release revocation procedures set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3583 (e)(3) violate Apprendi v.

Huerta-Pimental, 445 F.3d 1220, 1225 (9th Cir.2006).

See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586 , 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007); United States v. Denton, 611 F.3d 646,…
