court’s intent for his sentence to run concurrently with an undischarged state
sentence. Specifically, he argues that, under U.S.S.G. § 5G1.3(b)(1), he is entitled
to credit for time served in state custody before he was convicted and sentenced in
federal court.
The district court properly denied Pacheco’s Rule 36 motion. See United
States v. Penna, 319 F.3d 509, 513 (9th Cir. 2003) (“Rule 36 is a vehicle for
correcting clerical mistakes but it may not be used to correct judicial errors in
sentencing.”) (emphasis in original); United States v. Kaye, 739 F.2d 488, 490 (9th
Cir. 1984) (“[T]he provisions of Rule 36 do not permit a substantive change in the
period of incarceration which the defendant must serve.”).
Pacheco’s request for appointment of counsel is denied.
AFFIRMED.
