UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. ARELI CRUZ RAMOS, aka Areli Cruz Morales, Defendant.
ORDER
United States Magistrate Judge Jeremiah C. Lynch entered Findings and Recommendation in this matter on May 20, 2019. Neither party objected and therefore they are not entitled to de novo review of the record. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003). This Court will review the Findings and Recommendation for clear error. McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Commodore Bus. Mach. Inc., 656 F.2d 1309, 1313 (9th Cir. 1981). Clear error exists if the Court is left with a "definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed." United States v. Syrax, 235 F.3d 422, 427 (9th Cir. 2000).
Judge Lynch recommended this Court accept Areli Cruz Ramos's guilty plea after Cruz Ramos appeared before him pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11, and entered his plea of guilty to one count of illegal reentry of deported alien in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), as set forth in the Indictment filed against him.
I find no clear error in Judge Lynch's Findings and Recommendation (Doc. 19), and I adopt them in full, including the recommendation to defer acceptance of the Plea Agreement until sentencing, when the Court will have reviewed the Plea Agreement and Presentence Investigation Report.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Areli Cruz Ramos is adjudged guilty as charged in the Indictment.
DATED this 6th day of June, 2019.
