Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
We affirm the district court's decision to impose, pursuant to U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, a 16-level "crime of violence" enhancement on the sentence of Roberto Hernandez-Rodriguez (Hernandez).
1. The Florida court accepted Hernandez's guilty plea and then placed him on probation. This qualifies as a "conviction" for purposes of U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2. See 8 U.S.C. § 1101 (a)(48)(A); Retuta v. Holder, 591 F.3d 1181, 1186 (9th Cir.2010).
2. Hernandez's conviction qualifies as a "felony" for purposes of U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2, because the maximum penalty allowed by Florida law for the offense of attempted robbery is five years in prison, upon conviction or revocation of probation. See Mendez-Mendez v. Mukasey, 525 F.3d 828, 833 (9th Cir.2008); United States v. Rios-Beltran, 361 F.3d 1204, 1208 (9th Cir.2004).
3. Under the modified categorical approach, Hernandez's conviction qualifies as a "crime of violence," because the judicially noticeable documents, the state charging information, the order of probation, and the judgment and sentence, show that the Florida conviction necessarily rested on facts satisfying the elements of generic attempted robbery. See United States v. Aguilar-Montes de Oca, 655 F.3d 915, 936— 37 (9th Cir.2011) (en banc); United States v. Saavedra-Velazquez, 578 F.3d 1103, 1106 (9th Cir.2009).
AFFIRMED.
