    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Jorge RIOS-JOAQUINA, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 05-40305
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    July 10, 2006.
    Michele A. Ratcliffe, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of Texas, Plano, TX, for Plaintiff-Appellee.
    
      Jose Alwin Stewart, Plano, TX, for Defendant-Appellant.
    Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BENAVIDES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Jorge Rios-Joaquina (Rios) appeals the 60-month sentence that he received after he pleaded guilty to illegal reentry by a deported alien. Rios argues that the district court violated his due process rights when it upwardly departed without stating on the record that aggravating or mitigating circumstances were present that had not been considered by the Sentencing Commission when it formulated the Guidelines. Rios argues, alternatively, that if United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), applies, the upward departure was unreasonable.

Rios fails to meet his burden of showing that the district court’s post Booker, non-guidelines sentence, which was an upward deviation from the guidelines range of imprisonment, was error, plain or otherwise. See United States v. Jones, 444 F.3d 430, 434-36 (5th Cir.2006); United States v. Smith, 440 F.3d 704, 707-10 (5th Cir.2006).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
