MEMORANDUM

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.

David E. Burgert, Jr., appeals from his 87-month sentence imposed after pleading guilty to conspiracy to possess illegal firearms, possession of a machine gun, and two counts of felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 371, 922(o), 924(a)(2), 922(g)(1), and 924(a)(2), respectively. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we remand for resentencing.

We reject Bergert's contention that inclusion of several statements in his pre-sentence report violated his due process rights. See United States v. Robertson, 901 F.2d 733, 735 (9th Cir.1990). However, because Burgert was sentenced under the then-mandatory Sentencing Guidelines, we remand for the district court to proceed pursuant to United States v. Ameline, 409 F.3d 1073, 1084-85 (9th Cir.2005) (en banc). See United States v. Moreno-Hernandez, 419 F.3d 906, 916 (9th Cir.2005) (extending Ameline' s limited remand procedure to cases involving non-constitutional United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), error).

REMANDED.
