Shirazi

MEMORANDUM

Ramin Shirazi appeals the 63-month sentence he received after pleading guilty to two counts of bank robbery in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113 (a). The district court counted a state vehicle theft conviction as criminal history rather than relevant eon- duct under the advisory sentencing guidelines.

U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(a)(l) and cmt. n. 1; Cruz-Gramajo, 570 F.3d at 1167-68 . Relevant…
