UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Roberto Escobar FLORES, Defendant-Appellant
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Decided August 19, 1996No. 94-30328PublishedCited by 15 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
CANBY, Circuit Judge:
Defendant Roberto Escobar Flores, who pleaded guilty to two counts of maintaining and controlling a place for the purpose of manufacturing controlled substances in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 856, appeals his sentence of 51 months. We have jurisdiction under 18 U.S.C. § 3742 and 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We conclude that the district court clearly erred by denying Flores a two-level downward adjustment for acceptance of responsibility and that it miscalculated his criminal history points. We vacate Flores’ sentence and remand for resentencing in accordance with this opinion.
