MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from United States v. Alvirez, 831 F.3d 1115 (9th Cir. 2013):
A defendant does not waive his right to appeal a district court's legal determinations simply because he failed to object. See United States v. Jimenez , 258 F.3d 1120, 1123 (9th Cir. 2001). Instead, we review for plain error. See id. at 1124.
