Opinion:
MEMORANDUM and ORDER
Anh Thoai Huynh appeals from her 30-month sentence imposed following a guilty plea for conspiracy to engage in money laundering, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1956(h). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.
Appellant was sentenced under the then-mandatory Sentencing Guidelines, and we cannot reliably determine from the record whether the sentence imposed would have been materially different had the district court known that the Guidelines were advisory. "We have held that 'where the district court did not treat the sentencing guidelines as advisory but the defendant's sentence was not enhanced by extra-verdict findings,' a nonconstitutional sentencing error has occurred." United States v. Brown, 417 F.3d 1077, 1080 (9th Cir.2005) (per curiam), citing United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084 n. 8 (9th Cir. 2005) (en banc). Appellant shall notify the court within 14 days of the filing date of this memorandum disposition if appellant wants to pursue an Ameline remand. See id. at 1084. If appellant does not respond to this inquiry, the district court's sentence shall be affirmed.
BRIEFING ORDERED.
