United States v. Dario Lopez-Arellano

MEMORANDUM

Dario Lopez-Arellano appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges the 41-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a deported alien found unlawfully in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326 . We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 , and we affirm.

Lopez-Arellano contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable in light of his unique history and characteristics. The district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing Lopez-Arellano’s sentence. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586 , 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007). The sentence at the bottom of the Guidelines range is substantively reasonable in light of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553 (a) sentencing factors and the totality of the circumstances, including Lopez-Arellano’s history of drug-related offenses. See id.

AFFIRMED.
