U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 04-2058
Eastern District of Arkansas
[PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Wollman and Fagg, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Sentencing Guidelines. Defendant could not begin
serving his federal sentence while he was still in state custody; district
court properly applied Guidelines Sec. 5G1.3(c); applying Pirani's plain
error analysis, defendant was not entitled to Booker relief as he failed to
demonstrate a reasonable probability that the district court would have
imposed a lesser sentence under an advisory guidelines scheme.

U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 04-2058
Eastern District of Arkansas
Criminal case - criminal law. Because defendant returned to state
custody after receiving his federal sentence instead of being committed to
the custody of the Bureau of Prison to commence service of his sentence,
he did not begin to serve his federal sentence at that time; Guidelines Sec.
5G1.3(c) did not apply to defendant as he was not subject to a prior
undischarged term of imprisonment at the time he was sentenced in
federal court.
