UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee v. Julio Cesar DONJUAN-GONZALEZ, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 06-41039

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

Feb. 29, 2008.

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, STEWART and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

James Lee Turner, Assistant U.S. Attorney, U.S. Attorney‘s Office Southern District of Texas, Houston, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee. Richard N. Jeffrey, Corpus Christi, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.

PER CURIAM:*

Julio Cesar Donjuan-Gonzalez (Donjuan) filed a pro se notice of appeal in which he designated only case number 2:06-CR-88-1. We liberally construe the notice to include case number 2:03-CR-348-2, which concerns the sentence imposed following the revocation of his supervised release, and in which a judgment was rendered at the same hearing at which the sentence was imposed in case number 2:06-CR-88-1. See Trust Co. Bank v. United States Gypsum Co., 950 F.2d 1144, 1148 (5th Cir.1992).

Donjuan argues for the first time on appeal that the district court erred in failing to give oral or written reasons for sentencing him above the advisory guideline range for the revocation of his supervised release and for failing to consider the Sentencing Commission‘s policy statements concerning the advisory guideline range. Because the district court stated that it had considered both the guideline policy statements and Donjuan‘s multiple supervised release law violations and because the record indicates that the district court considered the appropriate advisory guideline range, the district court did not commit plain error in sentencing Donjuan. See United States v. Izaguirre-Losoya, 219 F.3d 437, 441 (5th Cir.2000); United States v. Montez, 952 F.2d 854, 860 (5th Cir.1992).

AFFIRMED.
