   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-3881
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Murphy and Shepherd, Circuit
   Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Evidence was sufficient to support conviction for being a felon in possession of a firearm, as the government proved constructive possession; district court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to compel the testimony of two defense witnesses who invoked the Fifth Amendment; no error in enhancing sentence two levels because the guns defendant possessed were stolen; under advisory sentencing guidelines, sentence-enhancing facts need only be proven by a preponderance of the evidence; no error in calculating the number of firearms or in imposing an upward adjustment based on the number of firearms defendant possessed; sentence was not unreasonable.
