Docket

*1 Before: CANBY, KOZINSKI, and HAWKINS, Circuit Judges.

In these consolidated appeals, Robert Michael Salazar appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges the 20-month concurrent sentences imposed upon revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

*2 Salazar contends that the district court procedurally erred by relying on facts not supported by the record in imposing an above-Guidelines sentence, and by failing to explain the sentence adequately. We review for plain error, see United States v. Valencia-Barragan , 608 F.3d 1103, 1108 (9th Cir. 2010), and conclude that there is none. The record does not support Salazar’s argument that when imposing the sentence, the district court relied on an assumption that Salazar was driving under the influence. Rather, the record reflects that the district court considered Salazar’s history of drug use, which was well documented in the record, and sufficiently explained its determination that an above-Guidelines sentence was warranted. See United States v. Carty , 520 F.3d 984, 992 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc).

AFFIRMED.
