U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
United States v. Noe Flores Vasquez
September 3, 2026
Summary
The Eleventh Circuit affirmed the district court’s 42‑month sentence for illegal reentry, holding that the upward variance was not substantively unreasonable. The court applied a deferential abuse‑of‑discretion standard and found the district court properly weighed all § 3553(a) factors, including deterrence and the defendant’s criminal history.
