Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California, A. Howard Matz, District Judge, Presiding. D.C. No. 2:08-cr-00040-AHM.
Before: WALLACE, HAWKINS, and THOMAS, Circuit Judges.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
Luis Rodriguez-Laguna appeals from the 60-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being an illegal alien found in the United States following deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm, but remand to correct the judgment.
Rodriguez-Laguna contends that the district court failed to verify that he had read and discussed the presentence report with his attorney, in violation of Fed.R.Crim.P. 32(i)(1)(A). Because Rodriguez-Laguna has made no affirmative allegation that he failed to read the report and review it with his attorney, and has not identified any disputed fact in the PSR, any error did not result in prejudice. See United States v. Soltero, 510 F.3d 858, 863-64 (9th Cir. 2007) (per curiam).
We remand the case to the district court with instructions that it delete from the judgment the reference to 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b). See United States v. Rivera-Sanchez, 222 F.3d 1057, 1062 (9th Cir. 2000); see also United States v. Herrera-Blanco, 232 F.3d 715, 719 (9th Cir. 2000) (remanding sua sponte to delete the reference to § 1326(b)(2)).
