upon revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.
§ 1291, and we affirm.
Gonzalez-Lopez contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable
because, among other things, the district court did not give adequate weight to his
mitigating factors. The district court did not procedurally err in imposing
Gonzalez-Lopez’s sentence. See United States v. Ressam, 593 F.3d 1095 (9th Cir.
2010); see also United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991-93 (9th Cir. 2008) (en
banc). Moreover, in light of the totality of the circumstances, including Gonzalez-
Lopez’s extensive criminal record and immigration history including five
deportations, his within guidelines sentence is substantively reasonable. See Gall
v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007); see also Carty, 520 F.3d at 991-93.
AFFIRMED.
