Before: WALLACE, Chief Judge, HUG and NOONAN, Circuit Judges.

MEMORANDUM**

Michael Dale Hodges, a federal prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to modify, vacate or set aside his 168-month conviction. Hodges contends that he received ineffective assistance of counsel because his attorney failed to warn him that he could be sentenced as a career offender prior to his guilty plea. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. We review the district court's factual findings for clear error and its conclusions of law de novo. United States v. Roberts, 5 F.3d 365, 368 (9th Cir. 1993). We affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.

AFFIRMED.
