Crescencio Martinez-Avendano appeals the 135-month sentence imposed following this court’s remand in his prior appeal.

See United States v. Sierra-Velasquez, 310 F.3d 1217 (9th Cir.2002). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

We remand the sentence for further proceedings consistent with United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084-85 (9th Cir.2005) (en banc).

REMANDED.
