UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

v.

RAFAEL ALVAREZ-IBARRA,

Defendant-Appellant. 

No. 06-1163

(D.Ct. No. 05-CR-410-PSF)

ORDER

Before KELLY, ANDERSON and McCONNELL, Circuit Judges.

This matter is before the court on appellant’s Unopposed Motion To Remand To

The District Court To Amend The Judgment. The sole issue in this appeal is whether the

case should be remanded so that the discrepancy between the sentence included in the

written judgment and the sentence announced orally can be resolved. Specifically, the

written judgment directs a sentence of 5 years. The sentence announced orally, however,

directed a sentence of 3 years. Both parties agree the sentence should be 3 years. 

Consequently, upon review of the briefs and this record as a whole, we grant the

appellant’s motion. This matter is remanded to the district court with instructions to

vacate the former written judgment and to enter a new judgment in accord with the orally

announced sentence. This appeal is terminated. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
