   MEMORANDUM

Boyd Livingston appeals from the sentence imposed following revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Livingston contends that the district court abused its discretion by imposing a renewed term of supervised release because he has neither the inclination nor the aptitude to succeed under supervision. We conclude that the 49-month term of supervised release is reasonable in light of, among other things, the need to protect the public. See United States v. Hurt, 345 F.3d 1033, 1035-36 (9th Cir.2003); see also United States v. Cope, 527 F.3d 944, 952 (9th Cir.2008).

AFFIRMED.
