043213P.pdf   05/31/2005  United States  v.  Lathan Barnett
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-3213
   Northern District of Iowa   
Criminal Case - sentencing. Following state conviction for involuntary manslaughter, defendant was convicted of federal firearm charges. Government appeals sentence running section 924(c) concurrent with state sentence; claim is reviewed for plain error and error is plain under statute forbidding 924(c) conviction to run concurrently. District court's rejection of guidelines under the then prevailing Mooney case was error and grave doubt exists whether district court would have sentenced defendant differently had it been aware of its duty to consult the Guidelines. Sentence is reversed and remanded. [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Bowman and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
