   MEMORANDUM

Charles Maurice Belgarde appeals from the 18-month sentence imposed upon revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Belgarde contends that his sentence is substantively unreasonable in light of the long period of time between his violation conduct and sentencing, and other mitigating circumstances. The district court did not abuse its discretion in imposing Bel-garde’s sentence. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007). The within-Guidelines sentence is substantively reasonable in light of the 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e) sentencing-factors and the totality of the circumstances, including the speed with which Belgarde violated his supervised release and the need to protect the public. See Gall, 552 U.S. at 51, 128 S.Ct. 586; see also United States v. Garrett, 253 F.3d 443, 449-50 (9th Cir.2001) (court may postpone adjudication of a supervised release violation until a defendant is released from state custody).

In an untimely pro se reply brief, Bel-garde also argues that the district court imposed the sentence to punish his violation conduct and previous criminal acts. Even if this argument were properly before the court, it would fail because it is not supported by the record.

AFFIRMED.
