   MEMORANDUM

Damian Palomino-Funes appeals the 41-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a deported alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we remand.

Palomino-Funes’ sentence was imposed at a time when the Sentencing Guidelines were mandatory. Because the Guidelines are now purely advisory, see United States v. Booker, — U.S. -, ---, 125 S.Ct. 738, 764-67, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), we remand so the district court can determine if Palomino-Funes should receive a different sentence under the advisory Guidelines system. See United States v. Hermoso-Garcia, 413 F.3d 1085, 1090 (9th Cir.2005).

REMANDED.
