US v. Aguilar-Huerta, No.08-2505

Sentence for being illegally in the United States after having been deported is affirmed where the court did not err in applying a 16-level increase in defendant's offense level under the Sentencing Guidelines, and is not required to consider the argument that the guideline is invalid and unworthy of application because it was promulgated without adequate deliberation by the Sentencing Commission.
