Trinidad

MEMORANDUM **

Samuel Trinidad appeals from his life sentence imposed following his convictions for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine, 21 U.S.C. § 841 (a)(1) and 841(b)(1)(A), reentry of a deported alien, 8 U.S.C. § 1326 (a), false statement during a firearm purchase, 18 U.S.C. § 922 (a)(6) and 924(a)(1)(B) and 2, and possession of a firearm by an alien illegally in the United States, 18 U.S.C. § 922 (g)(5)(A).

Because Trinidad was sentenced under the then-mandatory Sentencing Guidelines, and we cannot reliably determine from the record whether the sentence imposed would have been materially different had the district court known that the Guidelines were advisory, we remand to the sentencing court to answer that question, and to proceed pursuant to United, States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084 (9th Cir. 2005) (en banc). See United States v. Moreno-Hernandez, 419 F.3d 906, 916 (9th Cir.2005) (extending Ameline’ $ limited remand procedure to cases involving non-constitutional Booker error).

REMANDED.
