U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 07-3011
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - St. Paul
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Murphy and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Warrant was not stale
under Minnesota law and there was still a fair probability officers would
find the evidence they sought when they executed the warrant; record
does not show that the district court believed it lacked authority to impose
a sentence below the statutory minimum; absent an unconstitutional
motive, the extent of the downward departure is unreviewable; court
considered the Section 3553(a) factors and had a reasoned basis for its
sentencing decision.
