U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 09-1325
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - Cape Girardeau
[PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Loken, Chief Judge, and
Shepherd, Circuit Judge]
Criminal case - sentencing. In a proceeding to modify defendant's
sentence under the amendments to the crack guidelines, the district court
did not abuse its discretion in failing to explicitly state what sentence it
would have imposed had the amendment been in effect when defendant
was originally sentenced; district court's observation that defendant's
original sentence was the product of negotiation was an accurate
reflection of the record; district court did not abuse its discretion in
denying defendant's motion to modify his sentence.
