   MEMORANDUM

Hugo Cruz appeals from the 57-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for being a deported alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Cruz contends that the district court erred when it imposed a 16-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2(b)(l)(A)(ii), based on his prior conviction for inflicting corporal injury on a spouse/cohabitant partner, in violation of California Penal Code § 273.5. The record reflects that the district court properly applied the enhancement after determining that the conviction was a felony and a crime of violence. See United States v. Laurico-Yeno, 590 F.3d 818, 823 (9th Cir.2010); United States v. Pimentel-Flores, 339 F.3d 959, 963 (9th Cir.2003) (defining “felony” under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2 and holding that a “crime of violence” need only be a felony as defined by the Guidelines for purposes of the 16-level enhancement).

Cruz further contends that the sentence is unreasonable because the district court failed to properly consider the individualized facts of his case. This contention is belied by the record, which reflects that the district court adequately considered the factors under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), including the mitigating factors presented by Cruz. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991-93 (9th Cir.2008) (en banc). Moreover, the sentence at the bottom of the Guidelines range is substantively reasonable. See id. at 993.

AFFIRMED.
