UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS JAN 13 2020
MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 19-50249
Plaintiff-Appellee, D.C. No. 8:13-cr-00034-AG-1
v.
MEMORANDUM*
JOSE SANTIAGO RIVERA VALLE, AKA
Jose Santiago Rivera,
Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Central District of California
Andrew J. Guilford, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted January 8, 2020**
Before: CALLAHAN, NGUYEN, and HURWITZ, Circuit Judges.
Jose Santiago Rivera Valle appeals from the district court’s judgment and
challenges the 13-month sentence imposed upon revocation of supervised release.
We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Valle contends that the district court procedurally erred by failing to

consider his mitigating arguments and relying on a clearly erroneous fact regarding
his criminal history. The district court did not plainly err. See United States v.
Valencia-Barragan,
608 F.3d 1103, 1108 (9th Cir. 2010). The record shows that
the district court considered Valle’s arguments for a shorter sentence and expressly
discussed some of them. The court was not required to address specifically each of
Valle’s arguments. See Rita v. United States,
551 U.S. 338, 358-59 (2007). The
record does not show that the district court relied on a clearly erroneous fact when,
in the course of explaining the basis for the sentence, it stated that past periods of
incarceration had not fully deterred Valle and protected the community from his
criminal activity. See United States v. Christensen,
828 F.3d 763, 816 (9th Cir.
2016) (stating standard).
Valle also contends that the sentence is substantively unreasonable. The
district court did not abuse its discretion. See Gall v. United States,
552 U.S. 38,
51 (2007). The sentence is substantively reasonable in light of the 18 U.S.C.
§ 3553(a) sentencing factors and the totality of the circumstances, including
Valle’s immigration and criminal history. See
Gall, 552 U.S. at 51.
AFFIRMED.
