171632P.pdf   08/13/2018  United States  v.  Ramone Williams
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-1632
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Beam and Colloton, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing. Defendant's New York conviction for attempted 
   second-degree robbery was a crime of violence under the force clause of 
   Guidelines Sec. 4B1.2(a); in any event, any error in the matter was 
   harmless as the district court considered the 3553(a) factors and stated 
   it would have imposed the same sentence regardless of its ruling on the 
   crime of violence issue; the district court did not err in imposing three 
   criminal history points for the offense based on its determination this 
   was an adult conviction; as stated before, any error in so concluding was 
   harmless in light of the court's 3553(a) analysis and sentencing 
   statements; any error in using the 2015 rather than the 2016 Sentencing 
   Guidelines Manual was harmless as the relevant provisions were identical 
   in the two versions.
