   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-3408
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Pierre   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Wollman and Smith, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Sentencing. While the court checked the box for Sec. 5K2.0 in its written statement of reasons for departing upward, the section does not permit an upward departure on the basis of the ground the court stated at sentencing (criminal record); however, the court clearly expressed its intent to adjust defendant's offense level under Guidelines Sec. 4A1.3, and the court's clearly announced intent to depart under that section prevails over the check mark made on the written statement; the court did not err in departing upwards under Sec. 4A1.3; court considered the 3553(a) factors in determining sentence and did not impose a substantively unreasonable sentence.
