v.
MEMORANDUM*
ADAM MICHAEL HARRIS,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Nevada
Andrew P. Gordon, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted February 17, 2015**
Before: O’SCANNLAIN, LEAVY, and FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judges.
Adam Michael Harris appeals from the district court’s judgment and
challenges the 37-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for
being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C.

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).
§§ 922(g)(1) and 924(a)(2). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we
affirm.
Harris contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable in light of the
circumstances of the offense. The district court did not abuse its discretion in
imposing Harris’s sentence. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007).
The sentence at the bottom of the Guidelines range is substantively reasonable in
light of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors and the totality of the
circumstances, including Harris’s criminal history and the need to promote respect
for the law. See Gall, 552 U.S. at 51.
AFFIRMED.
