Summary Calendar
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
versus
WILMER BARAHONA-REYES,
Defendant-Appellant.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. 1:05-CR-5-1
--------------------
Before KING, DeMOSS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Wilmer Barahona-Reyes (Barahona) appeals the sentence
imposed following his guilty-plea conviction of aiding and

offense was equal to that of his co-defendants and does not
establish that he supervised or managed their actions.
We agree that the evidence before the district court does
not establish Barahona’s management or supervision of other
participants in the offense as required to apply the enhancement
in § 3B1.1(c). See United States v. Jobe,
101 F.3d 1046, 1068
(5th Cir. 1996). Accordingly, we VACATE Barahona’s sentence and
REMAND to the district court for resentencing. See United States
v. Duhon,
440 F.3d 711, 716 (5th Cir. 2006).
