MEMORANDUM**

2

Hernandez-Garcia appeals the district court's imposition of a $2,500 fine following his conviction for felony illegal reentry after deportation. We affirm.

FACTS AND PROCEEDINGS

3

Hernandez-Garcia, a deported alien, was arrested after illegally reentering the United States. After pleading guilty, the district court sentenced him to two years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine. The prison term and the fine were within the limit of 18 U.S.C. Secs. 1236 and 3623, respectively. Hernandez-Garcia then filed a motion to correct an illegal sentence pursuant to Fed.R.Crim.P. 35(a). After a hearing, the court reduced the fine to $2,500. Hernandez-Garcia timely appeals.

DISCUSSION

4

Hernandez-Garcia contends that the district court abused its discretion by failing to consider any of the factors enumerated in 18 U.S.C. Sec. 3622 when assessing a $2,500 fine against him. We disagree.

5

Here, because the record indicates that the judge did consider several of the factors specified in section 3622 when he assessed the $2,500 fine, we find no abuse of discretion.

6

AFFIRMED.

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for submission on the record and briefs and without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a), Ninth Circuit Rule 34-4
