Criminal: Sentencing-Enhancement-Drug Quantity

Staff Report//January 2, 2019//

Listen to this article

Where a defendant challenged a sentencing enhancement for maintaining a manufacturing or distribution premises, he waived his challenge when he withdrew his objection to it in the district court, and any error in the calculation of drug quantity was harmless because it did not change the base-offense level and had no effect on the sentence.

Judgment is affirmed.
