UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,

JOHN WESLEY CRITES, III,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 3:01-CR-168-ALL-G
--------------------
Before EMILIO M. GARZA, DeMOSS, and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
In this expedited appeal, John Wesley Crites, III, challenges
the 11-month sentence imposed following the revocation of his
supervised release. He maintains that his placement in Criminal
History Category III at his original sentencing was error. He
argues that the sentence should be vacated and the case remanded to

this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
release.
The Sentencing Guidelines do not provide guideline ranges for
sentences upon revocation of supervised release; rather, the
Guidelines set forth policy statements, which are advisory only.
See United States v. Headrick,
963 F.2d 777, 779-80 (5th Cir.
1992). Thus, this court will uphold a sentence imposed following
the revocation of supervised release “unless it is in violation of
law or is plainly unreasonable.” United States v. Teran,
98 F.3d
831, 836 (5th Cir. 1996).
Crites has failed to show that the 11-month sentence imposed
by the district court violated the law or that the sentence was
plainly unreasonable. See
id. Accordingly, the judgment of the
district court is AFFIRMED.
