MEMORANDUM **
Javier Ochoa-Gaytan appeals his 63-month sentence imposed on remand for resentencing after his jury trial conviction for being a deported alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3742 and U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Ochoa-Gaytan contends that the district court improperly enhanced his sentence on the basis of a prior aggravated felony conviction that was neither admitted or charged in the indictment, nor proven be*66yond a reasonable doubt. These arguments are foreclosed by United States v. Pacheco-Zepeda, 284 F.3d 411, 414-15 (9th Cir.2000) (holding that Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000) did not overrule Almendarez-Torres v. United States, 523 U.S. 224, 118 S.Ct. 1219, 140 L.Ed.2d 350 (1998)), cert. denied, 532 U.S. 966, 121 S.Ct. 1503, 149 L.Ed.2d 388 (2001).
AFFIRMED.
