    MEMORANDUM *
    TIMOTHY BRUCE RUDDLE,
    Defendant - Appellant.
    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the District of Montana
    Sam E. Haddon, District Judge, Presiding
    Submitted March 16, 2010 **
    Before:        SCHROEDER, PREGERSON, and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges.

    following a guilty-plea conviction for receipt of child pornography, in violation of

    This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
    except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.

    The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
    without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

    18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(2). We have jurisdiction pursuant to 
    28 U.S.C. § 1291
    , and
    we affirm.
    Ruddle contends that the district court procedurally erred by failing
    adequately to explain the sentence imposed and that the sentence, at the high-end
    of the Sentencing Guidelines, is substantively unreasonable. The record reflects
    that the district court adequately explained the sentence. See United States v.
    Perez-Perez, 
    512 F.3d 514
    , 516-17 (9th Cir. 2008). Further, in light of the totality
    of the circumstances and the factors set forth in 
    18 U.S.C. § 3553
    (a), the sentence
    is not unreasonable. See Gall v. United States, 
    552 U.S. 38
    , 51 (2007).
    AFFIRMED.
