   MEMORANDUM

Jose Antonio Saenz-Franco appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to illegal reentry following deportation in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

As the district court sentenced SaenzFranco at a time when the United States Sentencing Guidelines were mandatory, and they are now discretionary, we remand to the district court to determine if Saenz-Franco should receive a different sentence under the advisory Sentencing Guidelines system consistent with United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084-85 (9th Cir.2005) (en banc). See United States v. Moreno-Hernandez, 419 F.3d 906, 916 (9th Cir.2005).

REMANDED.
