Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit March 10, 2000, 98-50589 (United States v. Omar Castillo-Casiano)

REINHARDT, Circuit Judge:

Omar Castillo-Casiano pled guilty to one count of illegal reentry in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326, and now appeals his sentence. He contends that the district court erred in failing to depart downward from the sentencing guidelines range on the basis of the nature and circumstances of his underlying aggravated felony conviction.
