   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-1978
   Northern District of Iowa   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Arnold and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law and sentencing. District court did not err in denying defendant's recusal motion, as the complained-of comments do not display a deep-seated favoritism or antagonism that would make fair judgment impossible; district court did not err in finding defendant was competent to stand trial; district court properly calculated the applicable Guidelines range and did not err in imposing enhancements for possession of a firearm and perjury; no error in denying a mitigating role adjustment; life sentence was a reasonable sentence.
