172688P.pdf 11/20/2018 United States v. Bryan Binkholder
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 17-2688
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Wollman and Erickson, Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - sentencing. On remand from this court, district court
concluded M.U. was victim under Guidelines sec. 2B1.1 because M.U.
sustained a monetary loss because of the defendant's scheme; the district
court's findings are not clearly erroneous and support the conclusion M.U.
was a victim under the Guidelines. Binkholder's challenge to the
constitutionality of 18 U.S.C. sec. 3742(g)(1), which applies the same
version of the Guidelines on remand as was in effect on the date of the
original sentence accomplishes a rational goal and is not
unconstitutional. Binkholder may not raise two new issues in this appeal
arising from his original sentencing.
