   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-3589
   Northern District of Iowa   
[PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Bright and Bye, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Sentencing Guidelines. District court erred in imposing sentence without consulting the guidelines and taking them into account in fashioning defendant's sentence; alternative sentence, which was almost double the sentence imposed, showed the error was not harmless, and the case must be remanded for resentencing.
