JONATHAN ROARKE,

               Defendant - Appellant.



                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Central District of California
                    Audrey B. Collins, District Judge, Presiding

                          Submitted, September 24, 2013 **

Before:        RAWLINSON, N.R. SMITH, and CHRISTEN, Circuit Judges.

       Jonathan Roarke appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges

the lifetime term of supervised release and one condition of supervised release

imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for possession of child pornography,

in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(5)(B). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C.

             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
          **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
§ 1291, and we affirm in part and vacate and remand in part.

      Roarke contends that the district court did not adequately explain why a

lifetime term of supervised release was necessary. We review for plain error, see

Valencia-Barragan, 608 F.3d 1103, 1108 n.3 (9th Cir. 2010), and find none. The

record reflects that the district court considered the parties’ arguments and the

probation officer’s recommendation before imposing the Guidelines-recommended

term; thus, the court did not err. See United States v. Daniels, 541 F.3d 915, 922

(9th Cir. 2008).

       Roarke also contends that the lifetime term of supervised release is

inconsistent with legislative history of the supervised release statute and otherwise

substantively unreasonable. The court did not abuse its discretion in imposing

Roarke’s sentence. See Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 51 (2007). The within-

Guidelines sentence is substantively reasonable in light of the totality of the

circumstances and the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors, including the nature

of the offense and the need to protect the public. See Daniels, 541 F.3d at 923-24.

      Roarke further contends that condition 18, prohibiting him from viewing or

possessing materials “depicting and/or describing ‘sexually explicit conduct,’ as

defined at 18 U.S.C. § 2256(2), during the course of treatment,” is overly broad

because it encompasses legal materials and materials necessary for his court-

mandated treatment. We review the district court’s imposition of this special

condition for plain error. See United States v. Cope, 527 F.3d 944, 957 (9th Cir.

2008). We agree that the condition may improperly interfere with Roarke’s ability

to bring collateral proceedings or participate in required counseling or treatment.

See id. at 957-58. Accordingly, we vacate condition 18 and remand with

instructions that the district court amend condition 18 with the modifying language

contained in condition 12, which clarifies that the condition does not apply to

materials related to a collateral attack or used for the purpose of court-mandated

treatment. See id.

      Roarke’s request to file this disposition under seal or, alternatively, under a

pseudonym is denied.

      AFFIRMED in part; VACATED and REMANDED in part.
