OMAR GALLARDO TORRES,

                  Defendant-Appellant.

                      Appeal from the United States District Court
                              for the District of Montana

Before: HAWKINS and McKEOWN, Circuit Judges, and PRATT,** District
Judge.

       Defendant-Appellant Omar Gallardo Torres, a citizen of Mexico, appeals the

district court’s imposition of a five-year term of supervised release that the court

labeled “inactive” while Gallardo Torres is outside the United States under a

lawful deportation order. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We

review for an abuse of discretion, United States v. Collins, 684 F.3d 873, 888 (9th

Cir. 2012), and affirm.

      A term of supervised release cannot be tolled, stayed, or suspended while a

person is outside the United States pursuant to a lawful deportation order.1 See

United States v. Ignacio Juarez, 601 F.3d 885, 890 (9th Cir. 2010) (per curiam);

United States v. Murguia-Oliveros, 421 F.3d 951, 952, 954 (9th Cir. 2005).

However, the district court here did not impose a tolled, stayed, or suspended term

of supervision. Rather, the court acknowledged that while Gallardo Torres was not

residing in the country, he could not be directly and actively supervised by the

Probation Office and would therefore be under inactive supervision. If Gallardo

Torres thereafter returned to the United States, he would then be subject to active

supervision.

      AFFIRMED.




      1
         Gallardo Torres’s claim is ripe for review on direct appeal because his
supervised release term forms “a part of the district court’s sentence, which is a
final judgment subject to immediate appeal.” United States v. Rodriguez-
Rodriguez, 441 F.3d 767, 771–72 (9th Cir. 2006) (citing 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a)).
