063294P.pdf   08/28/2007  United States  v.  Thomas M. Coughlin
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-3294
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Ft. Smith   
   [PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Loken, Chief Judge, and Bye,
   Circuit Judge]
   Criminal case - Sentencing. District court erred in finding defendant
   suffered from an extraordinary physical impairment and abused its
   discretion in departing downward eight levels pursuant to Guidelines Sec.
   5H1.4; when it imposed an alternative non-Guidelines sentence, the court
   did not state the reasons for the sentence with sufficient specificity and
   relied on irrelevant and discouraged grounds in reaching the sentence.
   Judge Bye, dissenting.
