MEMORANDUM *

On December 3, 2004, we affirmed the district court’s judgment in this appeal. The Supreme Court vacated and remanded our disposition for consideration in light of its subsequent decision in United, States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 , 125 S.Ct. 738 , 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). See Ramos-Birrueta v. United States, 543 U.S. 1183 , 125 S.Ct. 1427 , 161 L.Ed.2d 185 (2005) (table).

We affirmed in our prior disposition the enhancement of appellant’s sentence based on a conviction that was neither pled nor proved to a jury, relying on United States v. Quintana-Quintana, 383 F.3d 1052 (9th Cir.2004), cert. denied, 543 U.S. 1130 , 125 S.Ct. 1100 , 160 L.Ed.2d 1085 (2005) (holding that Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296 , 124 S.Ct. 2531 , 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004) did not overrule Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224 , 118 S.Ct. 1219 , 140 L.Ed.2d 350 (1998)), United States v. Arellano-Rivera, 244 F.3d 1119, 1127 (9th Cir.2001) (holding that Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 , 120 S.Ct. 2348 , 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), did not overrule Almendarez-Torres).
