View this case - free  

Overview: In defendant's conviction of one count of bank robbery, the evidence was sufficient to submit the case to the jury and to deny defendant's Fed. R. Crim.

View this case - free  

Overview: Where defendant was convicted of possession with intent to distribute cocaine, district court's use of a 5-15 kilogram range to assign an offense level violated the Sixth Amendment because the jury did not make a finding regarding the drug quantity attributable to defendant and the sentence imposed was beyond the maximum authorized by the verdict.

View this case - free  

Overview: Where defendant's true identity was material fact in probation officer's investigation, false information defendant offered about his identity had potential to obstruct officer's efforts and was materially false, and thus warranted enhancement to defendant's sentence for obstruction of justice under U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 3C1.1 (2005).
