UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. RICHARD REDFIELD, Defendant-Appellant.


NOT FOR PUBLICATION

D.C. No. 1:05-cr-00140-SPW MEMORANDUM Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Montana
Susan P. Watters, District Judge, Presiding Before: SILVERMAN, PAEZ, and OWENS, Circuit Judges.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.

Richard Redfield appeals from the district court's judgment and challenges the 11-month sentence imposed upon his third revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Redfield contends that the sentence is substantively unreasonable in light of his willingness to admit his violations, the nature and age of some of his violations, the time he served in state custody for one of his violations, and the brain injury he suffered in 2014. The district court did not abuse its discretion. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007). The high-end sentence is substantively reasonable in light of the 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e) sentencing factors and the totality of the circumstances, including Redfield's repeated violations of supervised release. See Gall, 552 U.S. at 51; United States v. Simtob, 485 F.3d 1058, 1062 (9th Cir. 2007) (at a revocation sentencing, violator may be sanctioned for breaching the court's trust).

AFFIRMED.
