PETER M LEMOINE

                                            Defendant-Appellant


                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                    for the Western District of Louisiana
                         USDC No. 1:07-CR-10032-1


Before REAVLEY, DAVIS, and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
      Peter M. Lemoine was convicted of one charge of theft affecting an
insurance provider and was sentenced to serve 46 months in prison and a three-
year term of supervised release. The district court also ordered Lemoine to pay
restitution in the amount of $664,971.95.
      Lemoine appeals his restitution order. He contends that the district court
erred by not considering the factors for setting restitution payments found in 18



      *
      Pursuant to 5 TH C IR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion
should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited
circumstances set forth in 5 TH C IR. R. 47.5.4.

U.S.C. § 3664(f)(2) before issuing his order of restitution. This error is, as
Lemoine concedes, reviewed for plain error only due to his failure to raise it in
the district court. See United States v. Howard, 220 F.3d 645, 647 (5th Cir.
2003); see also Puckett v. United States, 129 S. Ct. 1423, 1429 (2009). A review
of the record controverts Lemoine’s assertion concerning the district court’s
consideration of the proper factors. Several of the district court’s remarks, as
well as its consideration of defense counsel’s arguments and the presentence
report, show that it considered the § 3664(f)(2) factors before setting Lemoine’s
payment schedule. See United States v. Caldwell, 302 F.3d 399, 420-21 (5th Cir.
2002). This argument is unavailing. The district court’s decision to impose
restitution in the chosen amount is AFFIRMED.
      Lemoine also argues that the district court’s oral and written restitution
orders conflict with respect to the timing of his payments. Lemoine is correct.
The district court’s final remarks on this topic at sentencing show that it
intended for Lemoine’s restitution payments to begin “within 30 days of his
release and entry onto supervised release.” The written judgment likewise
indicates that Lemoine’s payments are to start when he begins to serve his term
of supervised release.
      However, the written judgment also indicates that Lemoine’s payments
are to begin “immediately.” Other language in the written judgment likewise
supports a conclusion that Lemoine’s restitution payments are to start while he
is still incarcerated. The written judgment is both internally inconsistent and
contrary to the district court’s final oral order concerning the timing of his
restitution payments.
      When the record is examined as a whole, it shows that the district court
intended for Lemoine to start paying his restitution after he was released from
prison, when his term of supervised release began. See United States v. English,
400 F.3d 273, 276 (5th Cir. 2005); United States v. McAfee, 832 F.2d 944, 946
(5th Cir. 1987). The record thus shows that the discrepancies in the written

judgment concerning the time at which Lemoine’s restitution payments are to
begin is the result of a clerical error. See United States v. Steen, 55 F.3d 1022,
1025-26 n.3 (5th Cir. 1995). The judgment is thus VACATED and the case is
REMANDED for the limited purpose of allowing the district court to amend the
written judgment to reflect the proper time for Lemoine’s restitution payments
to begin. See F ED. R. C RIM. P. 36.
