   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-2594
                          and No:  05-2627
   District of Nebraska   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Fagg and Arnold, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Evidence was sufficient
   to support defendant's convictions of drug and firearms charges; on the
   government's cross-appeal, the district court erred in requiring beyond-a-
   reasonable-doubt standard of proof with respect to drug quantity
   determinations, and the case is remanded for a determination of drug
   quantity under a preponderance of the evidence standard.
