ADAM MICHAEL HARRIS,
Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Nevada
Andrew P. Gordon, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted May 8, 2017**
Before: REINHARDT, LEAVY, and NGUYEN, Circuit Judges.
Adam Michael Harris appeals from the district court’s judgment and
challenges the 22-month term of supervised release imposed upon revocation of
supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Harris contends that the term of supervised release is substantively

unreasonable in light of the fact that he is not amenable to supervision and has
largely met the goals of supervised release, committing only “technical” violations.
The district court did not abuse its discretion. See United States v. Collins, 684
F.3d 873, 887 (9th Cir. 2012). The 22-month term of supervised release is
substantively reasonable in light of the 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e) sentencing factors and
the totality of the circumstances. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51
(2007). Harris’s past failures to comply with the requirements of supervision, even
if “technical,” do not “obviate the need for further supervision,” but rather suggest
that additional supervision may be necessary to facilitate Harris’s rehabilitation
and protect the public. See United States v. Hurt, 345 F.3d 1033, 1035-36 (9th
Cir. 2003).
AFFIRMED.
