IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-40909

Summary Calendar

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

JORGE IVAN MEDINA-VILLARREAL,

Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. 1:14-CR-319-1

Before REAVLEY, DENNIS, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Jorge Ivan Medina-Villarreal pleaded guilty to being found unlawfully 

present in the United States following removal. He was sentenced at the top 

of the recommended sentencing guidelines range to 71 months of 

imprisonment and a three-year term of supervised release. The parties agree 

that the judgment of conviction, which states that Medina-Villarreal’s prior 

removal was subsequent to a conviction for an aggravated felony, improperly 

 

* 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.

reflects that he was 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 Medina-Villarreal’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, § 1326(b)(1), and to state 

that his prior removal was subsequent to a felony conviction. See 28 U.S.C. 

§ 2106. In all other respects, the judgment is AFFIRMED.
