United States v. Donald Hogan

FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION APR 22 2013 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 12-10312 Plaintiff - Appellee, D.C. No. 3:94-cr-00044-ECR v. MEMORANDUM* DONALD LEROY HOGAN, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Nevada Edward C. Reed, Jr., District Judge, Presiding Submitted April 16, 2013** Before: CANBY, IKUTA, and WATFORD, Circuit Judges. Donald Leroy Hogan appeals pro se from the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for reduction of sentence. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. * 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). Hogan contends that Amendment 591 to the United States Sentencing Guidelines authorized the district court to resentence him under section 3582(c)(2). We review de novo whether the court had jurisdiction to modify Hogan’s sentence. See United States v. Leniear, 574 F.3d 668, 672 (9th Cir. 2009). The record reflects that Hogan’s base offense level was calculated under U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1(c)(1), which was not affected by Amendment 591. See U.S.S.G. app. C, amend. 591 (Supp. 2003); United States v. McEnry, 659 F.3d 893, 898-99 (9th Cir. 2011) (discussing changes made by Amendment 591). Because Amendment 591 did not lower Hogan’s advisory Sentencing Guidelines range, the district court lacked jurisdiction to reduce his sentence. See 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2); Leniear, 574 F.3d at 674. In light of this conclusion, we do not reach Hogan’s remaining claims. AFFIRMED. 2 12-10312
