Estrada contends that his sentence is unreasonable because, among other
things, the district court failed to adequately consider the fact that his original
sentence may have been based on a miscalculated Guidelines range. This
contention is belied by the record. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 992-
93 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc); United States v. Gerace, 997 F.2d 1293, 1295 (9th
Cir. 1993) (“An appeal challenging a probation revocation proceeding is not the
proper avenue through which to attack the validity of the original sentence”).
Estrada also argues that the court failed to adequately explain why it was
ordering the 21-month sentence imposed upon revocation to run subsequent to
another federal sentence. The record reflects that the district court did not err in
this regard. See United States v. Fifield, 432 F.3d 1056, 1066 (9th Cir. 2005).
To the extent that Estrada challenges the substantive reasonableness of his
sentence, the sentence is not substantively unreasonable, under the totality of the
circumstances. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51-52 (2007).
AFFIRMED.
