United States v. Cabrera-Ortiz

MEMORANDUM**

Manuel Cabrera-Ortiz appeals the sentence imposed following his jury conviction for being a deported alien found in the United States in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326.

*610Cabrera-Ortiz contends that the district court erred in denying him a downward adjustment for acceptance of responsibility pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 8E1.1. The district court adopted the finding of the presentence report, which concluded that Cabrera-Ortiz did not demonstrate acceptance of responsibility where he did not admit his guilt to law enforcement officials, and provided a false name when initially contacted by agents. Because Cabrera-Ortiz failed to clearly demonstrate acceptance of responsibility, the district court did not clearly err by denying the adjustment. See United States v. Cortes, 299 F.3d 1030, 1037 (9th Cir.2002); United States v. Burrows, 36 F.3d 875, 883 (9th Cir.1994).

AFFIRMED.
