Jose Luis Crus-Hernandes appeals from the 11-month sentence imposed

Crus-Hernandes contends that his within-Guidelines sentence is
substantively unreasonable because circumstances in his life had changed, he
presented little danger, and he would have been sufficiently deterred by a lesser
sentence. In light of the totality of the circumstances, including prior deportations
and convictions, the sentence is substantively reasonable. See United States v.
Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 993 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).
In accordance with United States v. Rivera-Sanchez, 222 F.3d 1057, 1062
(9th Cir. 2000), we remand the case to the district court with instructions that it
delete from the judgment the incorrect reference to section 1326(b)(1). See United
States v. Herrera-Blanco, 232 F.3d 715, 719 (9th Cir. 2000) (remanding sua sponte
to delete the reference to section 1326(b)).
AFFIRMED; REMANDED to correct judgment.
