United States v. Moises Ulloa

Case: 15-41735 Document: 00513648093 Page: 1 Date Filed: 08/23/2016 IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT United States Court of Appeals No. 15-41735 Fifth Circuit FILED Summary Calendar August 23, 2016 Lyle W. Cayce UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Clerk Plaintiff-Appellee v. MOISES ULLOA, Defendant-Appellant Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. 5:15-CR-1036-1 Before KING, DENNIS, and COSTA, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: * Moises Ulloa pleaded guilty to reentering the United States after having previously been removed and was sentenced to 41 months of imprisonment, followed by three years of supervised release. In this appeal, he challenges the district court’s entry of a judgment under 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2), which provides for a maximum sentence of 20 years for an alien whose prior removal was subsequent to a conviction for an “aggravated felony.” Ulloa correctly * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. Case: 15-41735 Document: 00513648093 Page: 2 Date Filed: 08/23/2016 No. 15-41735 maintains that the qualifying prior felony, a 2012 New York conviction for attempted robbery, did not constitute an “aggravated felony” because he was not sentenced to a term of imprisonment of at least one year. See § 1326(b)(2); 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(F). Accordingly, Ulloa’s conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED. We REMAND the case to the district court for the limited purpose of reforming the judgment to reflect Ulloa’s conviction under § 1326(b)(1) instead of § 1326(b)(2). 2
