UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. CHADWICK VILLAMOR, Defendant - Appellant.
NOT FOR PUBLICATION
MEMORANDUM
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Nevada
Lloyd D. George, Senior District Judge, Presiding
Before: HUG, FARRIS, and LEAVY, Circuit Judges.
Chadwick Villamor appeals from the district court's judgment and challenges the 60-month sentence imposed following his conviction for unlawful possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g) and 924(a)(2). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Villamor contends that, in light of his mental health problems, the district court should not have imposed an above-Guidelines sentence of 60 months. We review the sentence for substantive reasonableness, applying an abuse of discretion standard. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007); United States v. Mohamed, 459 F.3d 979, 987 (9th Cir. 2006). The sentence is substantively reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances and the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors, including Villamor's extensive criminal history and the need to protect the public and promote respect for the law. See Gall, 552 U.S. at 51.
AFFIRMED.
