Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Arnulfo Arellano Gonzalez appeals from the district court's judgment and chal lenges the 80-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a removed alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. §' 1826. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Arellano Gonzalez contends that the district court procedurally erred by failing to consider all of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors, and by improperly relying on a prior sentence imposed for the same offense as a benchmark for the instant case. We review for plain error, see United States v. Valencia-Barragan, 608 F.3d 1103, 1108 (9th Cir.2010), and find none. The record reflects that the district court properly considered the applicable section 3553(a) factors, including Arellano Gonzalez's criminal and immigration history. See 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)(1); United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 992 (9th Cir.2008) (en banc) ("The district court need not tick off each of the § 3553(a) factors to show that it has considered them."); 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."). Moreover, the district court's consideration of Arella-no Gonzalez's prior sentence for the same offense was not improper. See United States v. Higueral-Llamos, 574 F.3d 1206, 1211-12 (9th Cir.2009).
AFFIRMED.
