United States v. Juan Manuel Ibarra

PREGERSON, Circuit Judge:

Juan Ibarra purchased a .22 caliber semiautomatic rifle by lying about his prior felony convictions. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) arrested him. Ibarra pleaded guilty to making a false statement in connection with the acquisition of a firearm, 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(a)(6), 924(a) (1982), and the Probation Office prepared a presentence report. Ibarra challenges the report’s accuracy and contends that the district court improperly relied on it in sentencing him. Because we think that the district court did not rely on the challenged statements, we affirm.
