In the Matter of: Erick Samuel Chavez
Gonzalez, Plut’on 1708, Sate’lite, Cd
Ju’arez, Chih, Mexico; Order Denying
Export Privileges
On August 12, 2020, in the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of
Texas, Erick Samuel Chavez Gonzalez
(‘‘Chavez Gonzalez’’) was convicted of
violating 18 U.S.C. 554(a). Specifically,
Chavez Gonzalez was convicted of
knowingly and willfully attempting to
smuggle from the United States to
Mexico various rifles and handguns. As
a result of his conviction, the Court
sentenced Chavez Gonzalez to 37
months in prison, with credit for time
served, three years of supervised
release, and a $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) (Prior
Convictions). 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 Chavez
Gonzalez’s conviction for violating 18
U.S.C. 554 (a) and, as provided in
section 766.25 of the Export
Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or
the ‘‘Regulations’’), has provided notice
and opportunity for Chavez Gonzalez to
make a written submission to BIS. 15
CFR 766.25.2 BIS has not received a
submission from Chavez Gonzalez.
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,
1 ECRA was enacted on August 13, 2018, as part
of the John S. McCain National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 and, as
amended, is codified at 50 U.S.C. 4801–4852.
2 The Regulations are currently codified in the
Code of Federal Regulations at 15 CFR parts 730–
774 (2022).
