76 F. App'x 836

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Julian LOPEZ-LICON, aka Julian Lopez Lincon, Juan Garcia, Julian Ochoa-Lopez, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 02-10544.

D.C. No. CR-02-00574-EHC.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

*837Submitted Sept. 12, 2003.*

Decided Oct. 1, 2003.

Before KLEINFELD, WARDLAW, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.

MEMORANDUM **

Julian Lopez-Licon appeals the denial of his Motion to Dismiss the indictment for attempted reentry under 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a). We affirm.

Sneaking under the fence, walking north two or three blocks, and hiding behind a bush from the Border Patrol sufficed for an “attempted reentry” conviction, even if continual surveillance amounting to official restraint might have prevented an “entering” or “being found in” conviction. United States v. Leos-Maldonado, 302 F.3d 1061, 1063 (9th Cir.2002), controls.

AFFIRMED.
