Opinion

MEMORANDUM

**

Jose Navarro-Marin appeals from the 57-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for illegal re-entry after deportation in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Navarro-Marin contends that his sentence is unlawful and unreasonable because the district court judge did not fully appreciate his authority and discretion to depart from the total offense level as calculated under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2. We disagree. Although the district court judge never specifically stated that he considered adjusting the total offense level, we assume that he was aware of his discretionary authority to depart. See United States v. Gonzalez-Perez, 472 F.3d 1158, 1162 (9th Cir.2007). Moreover, based on the record before us, we cannot say that Navarro-Marin’s sentence is unreasonable or unlawful. See United States v. Mohamed, 459 F.3d 979, 985-89 (9th Cir.2006); see also Gall v. United States, — U.S. -, 128 S.Ct. 586, 597-98, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007).

AFFIRMED.
