Overview: District court erred in viewing the Sixth Amendment limitation on the guidelines as excluding all enhancements based on its fact finding because enhancements of defendants' sentences for the amount of money defrauded or for obstruction of justice were within the statutory maximum; thus, resentencing was warranted because the error was not harmless.

United States v. Olthoff, No. 04-4159, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT, February 8, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Where firearms that defendant stole during a "crime spree" were available to him to brandish and use as a threat during multiple burglaries, the district court properly found that defendant used the firearms during the burglaries for purposes of U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 2K2.1(b)(5). The burglaries were crimes of violence.

United States v. Vaca-Arceo, No. 05-1350, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT, February 8, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Although district court plainly erred in sentencing defendant under mandatory application of U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, the error was not prejudicial because he was sentenced toward the middle of the calculated Guidelines range and nothing in the record suggested he would have received a more lenient sentence under an advisory Guidelines scheme.
