United States v. Cesar Correa-Correa

FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION NOV 03 2011 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 10-10226 Plaintiff - Appellee, D.C. No. 4:09-cr-01626-JMR v. MEMORANDUM * CESAR CORREA-CORREA, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona John M. Roll, Chief Judge, Presiding Submitted October 25, 2011 ** Before: TROTT, GOULD, and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges. Cesar Correa-Correa appeals from the low-end 41-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for illegal reentry, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We dismiss. * 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). Correa-Correa contends that the district court erred in applying the 16-level “crime of violence” enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(1)(A)(ii) because it conducted a modified categorical analysis of the relevant state statute without first determining that the statute is broader than its federal counterpart. We are precluded from reaching the merits of Correa-Correa’s claim by a valid appeal waiver. See United States v. Nunez, 223 F.3d 956, 958-59 (9th Cir. 2000); see also United States v. Jacobo Castillo, 496 F.3d 947, 957 (9th Cir. 2007) (en banc). DISMISSED. 2 10-10226
