MEMORANDUM *
JUVENILE FEMALE,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Montana
Sam E. Haddon, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted May 24, 2011 **
Before: PREGERSON, THOMAS, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges.
Appellant, a juvenile, appeals from the nine-month sentence imposed
following revocation of juvenile delinquent supervision. We have jurisdiction
under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
*
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).
Appellant contends that the district court’s sentence contravenes the
rehabilitative purposes of the Federal Juvenile Delinquency Act, 18 U.S.C. § 5031et seq. (FJDA), because it reflects impermissible factors and was not the least
restrictive means of achieving these purposes. The record reflects that the district
court adequately considered the relevant factors within the FJDA while accounting
for the totality of Appellant’s unique circumstances and rehabilitative needs, and
imposed a sentence that was the least restrictive means to meet those needs. See
United States v. Juvenile, 347 F.3d 778, 787 (9th Cir. 2003).
AFFIRMED.
