MEMORANDUM*
JOSE MANUEL DE LA TORRE-
VENTURA,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of California
Roger T. Benitez, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted January 21, 2014**
Before: CANBY, SILVERMAN, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges.
Jose Manuel De La Torre-Ventura appeals from the district court’s judgment
and challenges his bench-trial conviction for being a deported alien found in the
United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28
*
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
**
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
De La Torre-Ventura contends that the district court violated his Sixth
Amendment right to confrontation by admitting documents from his Alien
Registration File to establish that he had been previously removed from the United
States. Each of De La Torre-Ventura’s arguments in support of this claim fail. See
United States v. Rojas-Pedroza, 716 F.3d 1253, 1267-69 (9th Cir. 2013), cert.
denied, __ S. Ct. __, 2013 WL 5965669 (Dec. 9, 2013).
AFFIRMED.
