   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-2665
                          and No:  06-2666
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Murphy and Shepherd, Circuit
   Judges]
   Criminal case - criminal law. District court did not err in calculating the
   amount of the government's loss in prosecution for conspiracy to
   fraudulently obtain federal housing subsidies in violation of 18 U.S.C.
   Secs. 371 and 641; government's actual loss in this type of case is the
   amount of subsidies paid minus the amount HUD would have paid had
   the defendants timely and truthfully disclosed the relevant circumstances;
   here, the evidence confirms no subsidies would have been paid, and the
   defendants were properly assessed the aggregate subsidies received
   during the period of conspiracy.
