United States v. Arnulfo Gonzalez

MEMORANDUM

Arnulfo Arellano Gonzalez appeals from the district court’s judgment and chal lenges the 80-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a removed alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. §' 1826.

The record reflects that the district court properly considered the applicable section 3553(a) factors, including Arellano Gonzalez’s criminal and immigration history. See 18 U.S.C. § 3553 (a)(1); United States v.
