   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-3626
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - Cape Girardeau   
   Girardeau

   Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - sentencing. Applying plain error review, district court erred in applying a presumption of reasonableness, but error was harmless as there is no indication district court would have sentenced him more favorably absent presumption. Although district court stated it was to impose a "reasonable sentence," it is clear that court followed proper procedures. District court did not abuse its discretion in sentencing defendant.
