091514P.pdf   02/23/2010  United States  v.  Ronald Lowry
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  09-1514
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Wollman and Riley, Circuit Judges]
   Criminal case - Sentencing. District court did not err in finding
   defendant qualified as a Tier III sex offender for SORNA purposes;
   argument that Guidelines Sec. 2A3.5(a)(1) does not apply to defendants
   who were sentenced and required to register as sex offenders before the
   creation of SORNA and the tier system is rejected; sentence was not
   unreasonable; district court did not abuse its discretion by ordering a
   substantial period of supervised release given the nature of defendant's
   offenses and his repeated registration violations.
