United States Ninth Circuit

Defendant's sentence for being a previously deported alien found in the United States is affirmed, where, even if the government breached its promise to recommend a sentence at the low end of the applicable Sentencing Guidelines range by arguing in its sentencing memorandum that defendant was a recidivist with an extensive criminal history, defendant did not establish that this alleged breach amounted to plain error.
