Privileges
On December 1, 2021, in the U.S.
District Court for the District of Arizona,
Mauricio Robles (‘‘Robles’’) was
convicted of violating 18 U.S.C. 554(a).
Specifically, Robles was convicted of
smuggling and attempting to smuggle
from the US to Mexico, 1,680 rounds of
5.56mm ammunition, 1,000 rounds of
10mm ammunition, 3,200 rounds of
7.62x39mm ammunition, and 50 rounds
of 7.62x25mm ammunition. As a result
of his conviction, the Court sentenced
Robles to 37 months of confinement,
with credit for time served, three years
of supervised release and $100 special
assessment.
Pursuant to Section 1760(e) of the
Export Control Reform Act (‘‘ECRA’’),1
the export privileges of any person who
has been convicted of certain offenses,
including, but not limited to, 18 U.S.C.
554, may be denied for a period of up
to ten (10) years from the date of his/her
conviction. 50 U.S.C. 4819(e). In
addition, any Bureau of Industry and
Security (‘‘BIS’’) licenses or other
authorizations issued under ECRA, in
which the person had an interest at the
time of the conviction, may be revoked.
Id.
BIS received notice of Robles’s
conviction for violating 18 U.S.C. 554.
As provided in Section 766.25 of the
Export Administration Regulations
(‘‘EAR’’ or the ‘‘Regulations’’), BIS
provided notice and opportunity for
Robles to make a written submission to
BIS. 15 CFR 766.25.2 BIS has not
received a written submission from
Robles.
Based upon my review of the record
and consultations with BIS’s Office of
Exporter Services, including its
Director, and the facts available to BIS,
I have decided to deny Robles’s export
privileges under the Regulations for a
period of seven years from the date of
Robles’s conviction. The Office of
Exporter Services has also decided to
revoke any BIS-issued licenses in which
