U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 15-2173
and No: 15-2192
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Kelly, Circuit Judge, and Ericksen,
District Judge]
Criminal case - Sentencing. Defendant Rangel-Ortega signed a valid appeal
waiver, and his appeal is dismissed; because the court misstated the scope
of defendant Valencia's appeal waiver at the change-of-plea hearing, the
court would consider his challenge to his sentence; the district court did
not err in imposing an enhancement under Guidelines Sec. 3B1.1(b) based on
its finding defendant Valencia acted as a manager or supervisor.
