151342P.pdf   07/01/2016  United States  v.  Danny Lewis
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  15-1342
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Melloy, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing. The district court's failure to calculate an 
   amended guidelines range in accordance with Guidelines Sec. 1B1.10(B)(1) 
   before ruling on defendant's motion to modify his sentence under Amendment 
   782 was error, but the error was harmless; it was not an abuse of 
   discretion for the court to adhere to its original decision that 120 
   months was an appropriate sentence even with a modestly reduced guidelines 
   range, and, in imposing the new sentence, the court could incorporate by 
   reference its reasoning from the original hearing; this explanation was 
   sufficient to allow meaningful appellate review of the denial of the 
   motion for modification of sentence.
