MEMORANDUM

Mario Valencia-Ochoa appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges the revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Valencia-Ochoa contends that 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3), which provides that a district court may revoke supervised release and impose a term of imprisonment upon finding by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant violated a condition of supervised release, is unconstitutional under Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2848, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000). As Valencia-Ochoa concedes, this claim is foreclosed. See United States v. Santana, 526 F.3d 1257, 1262 (9th Cir. 2008).

AFFIRMED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
