Hayes contends that the district court erred by considering legally
impermissible factors when imposing the sentence. The record reflects that the
district court considered the appropriate sentencing factors under 18 U.S.C.
§ 3583(e) and was sanctioning Hayes for “breach of trust.” See United States v.
Miqbel, 444 F.3d 1173, 1176, 1181-82 (9th Cir. 2006).
Hayes also contends that the district court procedurally erred by failing to
provide an adequate statement of reasons for the sentence imposed, and that the
sentence is substantively unreasonable. The record reflects that the district court
did not procedurally err and that, in light of the totality of the circumstances, the
sentence is substantively reasonable. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984,
991-93, 995 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc); see also Miqbel, 444 F.3d at 1176 (sentence
imposed upon revocation of supervised release reviewed for reasonableness).
AFFIRMED.
