United States v. Rodolfo Dominguez-Sosa

MEMORANDUM

Rodolfo Dominguez-Sosa appeals from the 46-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.

Dominguez-Sosa contends that the district court abused its discretion by failing to impose a lower sentence in light of his limited criminal history and his cultural and family ties to the United States. The record reflects that the district court considered Dominguez-Sosa’s arguments and found that they were insufficient to impose a sentence below the Guidelines range. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 995 (9th Cir.2008) (en banc). In light of the totality of the circumstances and the 18 U.S.C. § 3558 (a) sentencing factors, the sentence at the bottom of the Guidelines range is substantively reasonable. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 , 128 S.Ct. 586 , 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007).

AFFIRMED.
