133543P.pdf 07/17/2014 United States v. John Woolsey, Jr.
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 13-3543
U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Fargo
[PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Murphy and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Prosecution for both being a
felon in possession of a firearm and being a felon in possession of
ammunition does not violate the bar on multiplicitous prosecutions as the
items were acquired at separate times and in separate places, thereby
providing two separate "units of prosecution;" in any event, defendant
could not show any prejudice as the counts were grouped for sentencing and
he received a below-guidelines sentence; constitutional challenge to 18
U.S.C. Sec. 922(g)(1) rejected.
