    The United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit reviewed a case in which the defendant, Joaquin Jimenez, argued that the district court sentenced him based on materially inaccurate information regarding whether his state criminal offenses were concentrated or spread out over time. The appellate court summarized that the district court's remarks as a whole indicated it was not inclined to depart downward regardless, because the defendant had engaged in serious misconduct. Therefore, the appellate court rejected the defendant's argument and summarily affirmed the lower court's judgment.

    UNITED STATES, Appellee,
    v.
    Joaquin JIMENEZ, Defendant, Appellant.
    No. 95-1457.

    United States Court of Appeals, First Circuit.


    Nov. 29, 1995.

    Thomas G. Briody on brief for appellant.


    Sheldon Whitehouse, United States Attorney, and Craig N. Moore,
    Assistant United States Attorney, on brief for appellee.
    Before Torruella, Chief Judge, Bownes, Senior Circuit Judge, and Stahl,
    Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM.

    We have carefully reviewed the briefs and record. The district court's remarks,
    read as a whole, indicate that regardless whether defendant's state criminal
    offenses were concentrated or spread out, the court was not inclined to exercise
    its discretion to depart downward because the fact remained that defendant had
    engaged in serious misconduct. Consequently, we reject defendant's argument
    that he was sentenced on the basis of materially inaccurate information.

    The judgment is summarily affirmed. Loc. R. 27.1.
