supervised release imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a felon

and 922(g)(1). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Guyumdzhyan contends that various financial conditions of his supervised
release including requiring him to disclose financial information as directed by the
probation officer, prohibiting him from applying for a loan, opening a line of
credit, or conveying significant assets without approval of the probation officer,
and paying his drug and alcohol treatment costs as directed by the probation officer
are not within the district court’s statutory discretion. The district court did not
plainly err in imposing these conditions because they reflect Guyumdzhyan’s
offense, history and characteristics, serve the goals of deterrence, protection of the
public, and rehabilitation, and are no greater than necessary. See 18 U.S.C.
§§ 3553(a), 3583(d); United States v. Garcia, 522 F.3d 855, 862 (9th Cir. 2008).
Guyumdzhyan also contends that these financial conditions result in an
impermissible delegation of the court’s authority to the probation officer. The
district court did not plainly err by impermissible delegation. See United States v.
Soltero, 510 F.3d 858, 864 (9th Cir. 2007) (per curiam); United States v. Stephens,
424 F.3d 876, 880-81 (9th Cir. 2005).
AFFIRMED.
