   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-2653
                          and No:  22-2655
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Western   
[PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Loken and Benton, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. The district court did not err in denying defendant Harden's motion to suppress evidence seen during the warrantless entry to his residence as the circumstances were sufficiently exigent to enter the home as there were very young children in the home who were either unattended or with an armed robbery suspect; as a result, the warrantless entry was reasonable and constitutional under the exigent circumstances doctrine; the evidence was sufficient to support defendants' convictions for conspiracy to interfere with commerce by robbery and defendant Maxwell's conviction for being a felon in possession of a firearm; the district court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to give defendant Harden's instruction on implicit bias; the district court did not err at sentencing in determining defendant Harden's relevant conduct included the use of a firearm and bodily injury - see Guidelines Sec. 1B1.3; nor did the district court clearly err in concluding Harden obstructed justice under Guidelines Sec. 3C1.1 by committing perjury in his trial testimony.
