U.S. v. RUIZ-LOPEZ

No. 13-10093.

749 F.3d 1138 (2014)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Luis RUIZ-LOPEZ, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Filed April 25, 2014.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Karen L. Landau (argued), Oakland, CA, for Defendant-Appellant.

Susan B. Gray (argued), Assistant United States Attorney, Melinda Haag , United States Attorney, Barbara J. Valliere , Chief, Appellate Division, Department of Justice, San Francisco, CA, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

Before: M. MARGARET McKEOWN and RONALD M. GOULD, Circuit Judges, and GORDON J. QUIST, Senior District Judge.

OPINION

GOULD, Circuit Judge:

Luis Ruiz-Lopez, convicted of illegal reentry following deportation under 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a) and (b), seeks a judgment of acquittal. He claims that the government did not present evidence sufficient to prove his alienage beyond a reasonable doubt. Because we conclude that sufficient evidence supported the jury's finding of alienage, we affirm the district court's denial of a judgment of acquittal.
