View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant's sentence for violating 26 U.S.C.S. § 7206(1), (2), was affirmed because district court's tax-loss calculation was based on credible evidence, and defendant benefitted from district court's application of 1998 version of USSG § 2T4.1(E), which was in effect at time he committed offense, because it was more lenient than 2003 version.

United States v. Hembree, No. 06-3795, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT, March 21, 2007, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant's appeal was dismissed because he could raise only frivolous claims. No double jeopardy violation arose out of fact that he was convicted and sentenced for violating 18 U.S.C.S. § 2113(a) and 18 U.S.C.S. § 924(c). Although his consecutive, statutory minimum sentences under § 924(c) were harsh, they did not violate U.S. Const. amend. VIII.

View this case - free  

Overview: Challenges to rulings on defendant's pretrial motions would be frivolous as his unconditional guilty plea waived non-jurisdictional defects; defendant's convictions and sentences based on 18 U.S.C.S. §§ 2113(d), 924(c) did not violate Double Jeopardy Clause as Congress authorized cumulative punishments imposed in single trial for same offense.

View this case - free  

Overview: Counsel's motion to withdraw was granted and the appeal was dismissed because counsel properly concluded that there was no nonfrivolous basis on which to challenge the district court's suppression ruling; when an officer asked defendant if he would "hold up" or "hang on" for a minute, no seizure occurred.
