United States v. Gomez-Bringas

MEMORANDUM**

Enrique Gomez-Bringas appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea for illegal re-entry by an alien after deportation in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326.

Gomez-Bringas contends that the district court erred in imposing a sentence that was not at the low end of the applicable Guidelines Range, because the sentence was based upon the impermissible ground of his prior arrest record. Because “[pjurely discretionary decisions authorized by the Guidelines, such as ... the choice of sentence within a guideline range, are not reviewable on appeal,” United States v. Khaton, 40 F.3d 309, 311 (9th Cir.1994), Gomez-Bringas’s appeal is

DISMISSED.
