IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-40208

Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

ABRAHAM HERNANDEZ-ALDAY,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 5:13-CR-409-1

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Abraham Hernandez-Alday pleaded guilty to being found unlawfully 

present in the United States following removal; he received a below-guidelines 

range sentence of 30 months of imprisonment. 

The parties agree that, because Hernandez-Alday was sentenced to 

deferred adjudication for a prior burglary conviction, he was not convicted of 

an aggravated felony and, thus, the judgment improperly reflects that he was 

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not 

be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH 

CIR. R. 47.5.4.

convicted and sentenced under 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2). See United States v. 

Mondragon-Santiago, 564 F.3d 357, 368 (5th Cir. 2009). Because HernandezAlday’s offense was a § 1326(b)(1) violation rather than a § 1326(b)(2) violation, 

we REMAND for the limited purpose of reforming the judgment to reflect the 

proper statute of conviction. See 28 U.S.C. § 2106. In all other respects, the 

judgment is AFFIRMED.
