MEMORANDUM **
Jorge Landa-Palafox appeals from the 145-month sentence imposed pursuant to his guilty-plea conviction for two counts of distribution of methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
The district court did not clearly err in denying Landa-Palafox a downward adjustment for being a minor participant. See United States v. Cantrell, 433 F.3d 1269, 1282-83 (9th Cir.2006). Further, because Landa-Palafox had more than one criminal history point, the district court properly found him ineligible for application of the safety-valve. See 18 U.S.C. § 3553(f)(1); United States v. Mulloy, 3 F.3d 1337, 1339-40 (9th Cir.1993). Finally, we conclude that the district court applied a reasonable sentence. See United States v. Plouffe, 436 F.3d 1062, 1063 (9th Cir. 2006).
AFFIRMED.
