Navarro

MEMORANDUM **

Francisco Navarro appeals the district court’s decision that he was not safety- *925 valve eligible. Navarro did not waive his ability to appeal safety-valve eligibility in his plea agreement because that appellate waiver was contingent on Navarro’s safety-valve eligibility.

We review a district court’s interpretation of the Sentencing Guidelines de novo and its application of the Sentencing Guidelines to the facts for abuse of discretion. United States v. Kimbrew, 406 F.3d 1149, 1151 (9th Cir.2005).

The district court improperly awarded Navarro three criminal history points. A sentence for a misdemeanor listed under U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(c)(1) counts as a criminal justice sentence only if the term of probation actually imposed is more than one year. See U.S. v. Gonzales, 506 F.3d 940 (9th Cir.2007) (en banc). At the time of his arrest, Navarro was serving a three year probation sentence for driving without a license imposed by the state court. However, at the time of the sentencing the state court had terminated the sentence nunc pro tunc to the day before he was arrested. As a result of the nunc pro tunc order, Navarro received only six-month probation for driving…

dissenting:

I respectfully dissent because, as I see it, Navarro “committed the instant offense while under [a] criminal justice sentence” of probation, 1 regardless of the fact that the state court later tinkered with that sentence. That precludes safety valve relief.
