   MEMORANDUM

David Tejeda-Robles appeals the sentence imposed following his guilty plea to unlawful reentry of a deported alien after conviction for an aggravated felony, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). Tejeda-Robles contends that under Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct. 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), the district court deprived him of due process by imposing a sentence greater than Section 1326(a)’s two-year maximum based on Tejeda-Robles’s prior aggravated felony, where Tejeda-Robles did not admit to having previously committed an aggravated felony. Tejeda-Robles, who states that he presents the issue merely to preserve it in the event of ensuing favorable Supreme Court precedent, acknowledges that the argument is foreclosed by United States v. Pacheco-Zepeda, 234 F.3d 411 (9th Cir. 2000) (as amended).

AFFIRMED.
