041827P.pdf   05/26/2005  USA  v.  John J. Lincoln
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-1827
   Northern District of Iowa   
   Criminal case - Sentencing Guidelines. Defendant's Iowa conviction, 
   while expunged, still counted under the Guidelines as it was not 
   expunged due to constitutional invalidity, innocence, or a mistake of law; 
   district court did not err in imposing a two-level enhancement for 
   obstruction of justice based on defendant's failure to appear; defendant 
   failed to show the district court would have imposed a lesser sentence 
   under an advisory guidelines scheme and was not entitled to Booker relief 
   under Pirani.
