United States of America, Plaintiff-appellee, v. Maxwell Rangel Joelson, Defendant-appellant, 60 F.3d 835 (9th Cir. 1995)

MEMORANDUM^** 

Maxwell Rangel Joelson appeals his 360-month sentence imposed following our remand for resentencing in United States v. Joelson, 7 F.3d 174 (9th Cir. 1993) (Joelson I). Joelson contends that the district court erred in conducting only a limited review of his sentence on remand. Specifically, he contends that the district court was not barred from addressing his contentions that he acted under duress and was entitled to offense level reductions for his limited role in the offense and acceptance of responsibility. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

We expressly limited the scope of our remand in Joelson I to "resentencing without the two-level increase [under U.S.S.G. Sec. 2D1.1(b) (2) for use of a private aircraft in importing cocaine]." See Joelson I, 7 F.3d at 180. Accordingly, the district court properly declined to address Joelson's contentions regarding duress, role in the offense and acceptance of responsibility. See United States v. Pimentel, 34 F.3d 799, 800 (9th Cir. 1994).

AFFIRMED.
