Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Celcio Javier Perez-Villanueva appeals from his conviction for reentering the United States after a prior removal, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
The motion to suppress was properly-denied because, unlike the administrative rights given in United States v. San Juan-Cruz, 314 F.3d 384, 389 (9th Cir.2002), Perez's consular rights, given to him before he was read his Miranda rights, did not contradict or undermine the Miranda rights.
The record demonstrates that Perez's Miranda waiver was voluntary, knowing, and intelligent. The Border Patrol Agent explained the significance of the Miranda rights to Perez, and clarified that "[bjefore we ask you any questions you need to understand your rights." Perez never indicated any confusion or uncertainty. Moreover, Perez signed a written waiver, was read his rights in Spanish, his native language, and had prior experience with the American criminal justice system. See United States v. Gamez, 301 F.3d 1138, 1144 (9th Cir.2002). Thus Perez's will was not "overborne by the circumstances surrounding the giving of a confession." Dickerson v. United States, 530 U.S. 428, 434, 120 S.Ct. 2326, 147 L.Ed.2d 405 (2000) (internal quotation mark omitted).
Perez concedes that his contention that the district court erred in denying his motion to dismiss the indictment is foreclosed by United States v. Hemandez-Vermudez, 356 F.3d 1011 (9th Cir.2004).
AFFIRMED.
