TYRE JAMAR MAYERS,

              Defendant - Appellant.

                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Western District of Washington
                    Marsha J. Pechman, District Judge, Presiding

                              Submitted March 8, 2011 **

Before: FARRIS, LEAVY, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.

       Tyre Jamar Mayers appeals from his sentence imposed following his guilty

             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
         **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Code of Washington § 9A.56.030(1)(b), was a "crime of violence" under U.S.S.G. §

2K2.1. As Mayers concedes, this contention is foreclosed by United States v.

Alderman, 601 F.3d 949 (9th Cir. 2010).

      AFFIRMED.
