Wolpert Clerk of Court Plaintiff - Appellee, v. ATANAEL VASQUEZ-IXLAJ, a/k/a Atanael Vasquez, a/k/a Atanael Ezequias, No. 23-5029 (D.C. No. 4:22-CR-00280-JFH-1) (N.D. Okla.) Defendant - Appellant. _________________________________ ORDER AND JUDGMENT* _________________________________ Before MATHESON, BACHARACH, and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges.** _________________________________ This matter is before the court on the parties’ Joint Motion to Remand for Resentencing. The parties move this court to vacate Appellant Atanael Vasquez-Ixlaj’s sentence and to remand this matter in light of United States v. Walker, 74 F.4th 1163 (10th Cir. 2023) and United States v. Jimenez, 61 F.4th 1281 (10th Cir. 2023). * This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1. ** Because this matter is being decided on a joint motion to remand to the district court, the panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist in the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(f); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore submitted without oral argument. Appellate Case: 23-5029 Document: 010110917725 Date Filed: 09/12/2023 Page: 2 Upon consideration, the Joint Motion to Remand for Resentencing is granted. This matter is remanded to the district court with instructions to vacate Mr. VasquezIxlaj’s sentence and to conduct further proceedings necessary to resentence him in accordance with Walker, Jimenez, and the parties’ joint motion to remand. The Clerk is directed to issue the mandate forthwith. Entered for the Court Per Curiam 2
