BOBBY BARNARD BEASLEY, also
known as Cutthroat,

             Defendant - Appellant.

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Western District of Washington
                  Robert S. Lasnik, Chief District Judge, Presiding

                        Argued and Submitted July 6, 2009
                              Seattle, Washington

Before: O’SCANNLAIN, KLEINFELD and BERZON, Circuit Judges.

       Beasley appeals his sentence of 37 months imprisonment, followed by 3

years supervised release, for unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, in

violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1).

        *
             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
      Beasley’s 2005 conviction for first degree theft under Washington Revised

Code § 9A.56.030(1)(b) is categorically a crime of violence within the meaning of

U.S. Sentencing Guidelines § 2K1.1(a)(4). This case is directly controlled by our

holding in Beasley’s co-defendant’s appeal, United States v. Alderman, __ F.3d

___ (9th Cir. 2010). We affirm for the reasons laid out in Alderman.

      AFFIRMED.
