James contends that the district court erred by imposing special conditions of
supervised release relating to searches and financial disclosure because those
conditions were not included in his original sentence for the underlying crime. The
district court did not abuse its discretion. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(d), (e); United
States v. King, 608 F.3d 1122, 1130-31 (9th Cir. 2010). The challenged conditions
were reasonably related to the sentencing goals of deterrence and protection of the
public, and James has not shown that they involve a greater deprivation of liberty
than is reasonably necessary. See United States v. Blinkinsop, 606 F.3d 1110,
1118-19 (9th Cir. 2010).
In his reply brief, James conceded that the other issues raised in his opening
brief are moot. Therefore, we do not address those issues.
AFFIRMED.
