This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent

Court for the Central District of California, sitting by designation.

The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for possession with intent to
distribute marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(D). We have
jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm without prejudice to an
application by Nevarez-Cajigas to the district court to vacate his sentence and
resentence him consistent with this decision.
Nevarez-Cajigas contends that the district court procedurally erred by failing
to calculate the applicable Sentencing Guidelines range at the outset of the
sentencing hearing, and by imposing a “standard” sentence rather than one based
upon the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors. We conclude that the district
court procedurally erred by failing to calculate the Guidelines range, and by failing
adequately to consider the § 3553(a) factors. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d
984, 993 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc). Accordingly, Nevarez-Cajigas is entitled to be
resentenced. However, the district court cannot sentence Nevarez-Cajigas at this
time because he has been released and deported. We accordingly affirm the
sentence imposed by the district court, but do so without prejudice to an
application by Nevarez-Cajigas to the district court to vacate his sentence and
resentence him consistent with this decision at such time, if ever, that he is in this
country and available for resentencing. See United States v. Plancarte-Alvarez,
366 F.3d 1058, 1065 (9th Cir. 2004).

Nevarez-Cajigas’ motion to file an untimely reply brief is granted.
AFFIRMED.
