Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Pablo Gonzalez-Mora appeals from the district court's judgment and challenges the 135-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), (b)(l)(A)(viii). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Gonzalez-Mora contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable because mitigating factors, including his disadvantaged youth, justified a variance. The district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing Gonzalez-Mora's sentence. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007). In light of the totality of the circumstances and the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors, the low-end Guidelines sentence is substantively reasonable. See id.; see also United States v. Gutierrez-Sanchez, 587 F.3d 904, 908 (9th Cir.2009) ("The weight to be given the various factors in a particular case is for the discretion of the district court.").
AFFIRMED.
