MEMORANDUM **
Sung U. Paek appeals from his 51-month sentence and conviction following a guilty plea to being a deported alien found in the United States, a violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we vacate and remand.
Paek contends that the district court erred by not granting him an additional one-point reduction in his offense level for acceptance of responsibility under U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1(b)(1). We agree, because Paek provided complete information in a timely manner. See United States v. Ochoa-Gaytan, 265 F.3d 837, 842 (9th Cir.2001). Therefore, we vacate the sentence and remand for re-sentencing.
We also remand to the district court with instructions to strike the reference to 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2) so that the judgment of conviction will reflect that Paek was convicted of only one punishable offense, a violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). See United States v. Rivera-Sanchez, 222 F.3d 1057, 1062-63 (9th Cir.2000).
VACATED AND REMANDED.
