U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 04-2092
District of Nebraska
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with M. Arnold and Riley, Circuit
Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law. Evidence was sufficient to support drug
conspiracy conviction; district court's credibility findings with respect to
testimony by defendant's co-conspirators are virtually unreviewable on
appeal; applying Pirani's plain error analysis to claim the district court
erred in making drug quantity calculations, defendant was not entitled to
Booker relief as he could not demonstrate a reasonable probability that
the district court would have imposed a lesser sentence under an advisory
guidelines scheme.
