UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
ARMANDO ROJAS-SAMANIEGO
Defendant-Appellant
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 5:05-PO-1125-ALL
Before JOLLY, BENAVIDES, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Armando Rojas-Samaniego (Rojas) appeals the 15-month sentence imposed
upon revocation of unsupervised probation. As the Government concedes, the
sentence was plainly erroneous because the maximum sentence that could have
been lawfully imposed was six months. See 8 U.S.C. § 1325(a); 18 U.S.C.
§§ 3551(a), 3565(a)(2). The sentence is VACATED and the case is REMANDED
for resentencing. See United States v. Coil, 442 F.3d 912, 914 (5th Cir. 2006).
