Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judge:

Edward Fernandez (“Fernandez”) was convicted of methamphetamine-related offenses. Under the United States Sentencing Guidelines, the sentencing judge assessed two criminal history points for Fernandez’s prior sentence of imprisonment. On appeal, Fernandez submits that the district court committed reversible error in assessing two points rather than only one, because his prior sentence did not involve imprisonment. We affirm the district court’s judgment.
