Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Nevada
Andrew P. Gordon, District Judge, Presiding
Argued and Submitted September 15, 2017
San Francisco, California
Before: SCHROEDER and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judges, and WHALEY,**
District Judge.
Kostyukov challenges four enhancements applied at his sentencing hearing
for the first time on appeal. When a party fails to raise an objection at trial “yet
asserts error on appeal,” we review for plain error. United States v. Santiago, 466

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
**
The Honorable Robert H. Whaley, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Washington, sitting by designation.
F.3d 801, 803 (9th Cir. 2006). Plain error is “(1) error, (2) that is plain, and (3)
that affects substantial rights.” United States v. Cotton, 535 U.S. 625, 631 (2002)
(quoting Johnson v. United States, 520 U.S. 461, 466–67 (1997)). That standard is
not met here.
AFFIRMED.
