MEMORANDUM ^**

** This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as may be provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.

Mohammad Hossein Parvizi appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to six counts of armed bank robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a) and (d). Because the district court recognized its discretion to grant a downward departure based on aberrant behavior, we lack jurisdiction to review its denial of Parvizi's request for a departure on that ground. United States v. Morales, 972 F.2d 1007, 1011 (9th Cir.1992).

DISMISSED.
