   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-2709
                          and No:  05-3450
   District of South Dakota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Wollman and Fagg, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and Sentencing. District court did not abuse its discretion in imposing an upward departure under Guidelines Sec. 4A1.3 based on its belief that defendant's criminal history category under-represented the seriousness and extent of his past criminal conduct; sentence which amounted to a 56% increase over the maximum guidelines range was not unreasonable or an abuse of the court's discretion; defendant's supervised release did not expire before Massachusetts district court transferred jurisdiction to South Dakota, and the district court had jurisdiction to revoke defendant's supervised release; challenge to revocation sentence would not be addressed as district court made the sentence concurrent to defendant's bank fraud conviction and that disposition complies with defendant's request for relief.
