supervised release imposed in revocation of supervised release proceedings. We

            The Honorable James E. Gritzner, United States District Judge for the

review the sentencing decision for abuse of discretion and other challenges for plain

error. United States v. Gasca-Ruiz, 852 F.3d 1167, 1170 (9th Cir. 2017) (en banc);

United States v. Bell, 770 F.3d 1253, 1256 (9th Cir. 2014). We have jurisdiction

under 18 U.S.C. § 3742 and 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and affirm in part, vacate in part, and

remand.

      Hofus first argues the district court committed procedural error in imposing

Hofus’s 12-month sentence without clearly specifying it used the correct Criminal

History Category in arriving at that sentence. The record reflects that the probation

office calculated Hofus’s recommended sentence range of 8 to 14 months by using

a Criminal History Category of VI instead of V. At sentencing, however, defense

counsel alerted the district court to the discrepancy and that the appropriate guideline

range was 7 to 13 months. On hearing this, the district court noted that its intended

sentence was within that range and then proceeded to sentence Hofus at 12 months

“in agreement with the recommendation from the probation department.” The

district court then announced various reasons to support the 12-month sentence,

noting its history with the case and various attempts throughout the years at leniency.

Given this record, we find any error in calculating Hofus’s sentence harmless. See

United States v. Munoz-Camarena, 631 F.3d 1028, 1030 (9th Cir. 2011) (per curiam)

(errors in calculating a defendant’s Guidelines range are reviewed for harmless

error); see also Molina-Martinez v. United States, 136 S. Ct. 1338, 1346 (2016).



                                           2
(“There may be instances when, despite application of an erroneous Guidelines

range, a reasonable probability of prejudice does not exist. . . . The record in a case

may show, for example, that the district court thought the sentence it chose was

appropriate irrespective of the Guidelines range.”).        We therefore affirm his

sentence.

        Hofus next challenges the imposition of a lifetime term of supervised release

and four special conditions, which we review for plain error. See Bell, 770 F.3d at

1256.    The Government concedes that Special Conditions 3 and 6 should be

remanded but argues the district court did not plainly err otherwise. Following our

recent decisions in United States v. Lupold, 806 F. App’x 522, 524 (9th Cir. 2020)

and United States v. Burleson, No. 19-10262, 2020 WL 4218317, at *2 (9th Cir. July

23, 2020), we find the district court plainly erred in imposing Special Conditions 3

and 6, but not Special Condition 5 and Standard Condition 12. Specifically, Special

Condition 3’s phrase “that would compromise your sex-offense specific treatment”

is vague; and Special Condition 6’s requirements that Hofus must “warn any other

people who use these computers that the computers may be subject to searches

pursuant to this condition” and install monitoring software on any computer he uses

are vague and overbroad. See Lupold, 806 F. App’x at 525–26. We vacate these

conditions accordingly and remand to the district court to modify these conditions.




                                          3
      As to the lifetime term of supervised release, we find no plain error as the

district court explained its necessity given Hofus’s history of non-compliance. See

United States v. Hammons, 558 F.3d 1100, 1103–05 (9th Cir. 2009).

      AFFIRMED IN PART, VACATED IN PART, AND REMANDED.
