NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS SEP 25 2019
MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 19-50028
Plaintiff-Appellee, D.C. No. 3:12-cr-00509-CAB-1
v.
MEMORANDUM*
ANABEL OCEGUEDA,
Defendant-Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of California
Cathy Ann Bencivengo, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted September 18, 2019**
Before: FARRIS, TASHIMA, and NGUYEN, Circuit Judges.
Anabel Ocegueda appeals from the district court’s order denying her motion
for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). We have jurisdiction under
28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Ocegueda contends that she is eligible for a sentence reduction under
*
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
**
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Amendment 782 to the Sentencing Guidelines. We review de novo whether a
district court had authority to modify a sentence under section 3582(c)(2). See
United States v. Leniear,
574 F.3d 668, 672 (9th Cir. 2009). Contrary to
Ocegueda’s contention, the district court properly calculated her amended
Guidelines range without considering the departures for fast-track and
overrepresentation of criminal history that the court granted at Ocegueda’s original
sentencing. See United States v. Ornelas,
825 F.3d 548, 554-55 (9th Cir. 2016).
Because Ocegueda received a 168-month sentence, which is below the minimum
of her amended Guidelines range, the district court properly denied her motion for
a sentence reduction. See U.S.S.G. § 1B1.10(b)(2)(A) (“[T]he court shall not
reduce the defendant’s term of imprisonment under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) and this
policy statement to a term that is less than the minimum of the amended guideline
range.”). Contrary to Ocegueda’s contention, United States v. D.M.,
869 F.3d
1133 (9th Cir. 2017), does not compel a contrary result.
AFFIRMED.
