MEMORANDUM
  
   **
  

  Gonzalez-Valera claims that his December 3, 2009 group-plea hearing violated Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11 and his constitutional rights to due process
   
   *538
   
  and assistance of counsel. The record patently demonstrates that Gonzalez-Valera was sufficiently advised of his rights, that he affirmed his understanding of such rights, that he expressly waived such rights by pleading guilty, and that he received adequate representation by counsel. As we have held, any Rule 11 violations from this hearing were harmless, and the hearing did not violate either due process or the right to counsel.
  
   See United States v. Escamilla-Rojas,
  
  640 F.3d 1055 (9th Cir.2011).
 

  AFFIRMED.
