United States v. Hollis

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided October 30, 2007No. 06-50784PublishedCited by 8 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

OWEN, Circuit Judge:

Horace Edward Hollis, Jr. appeals his criminal sentence under the Armed Career Criminal Act 1 and associated provisions of the United States Sentencing Guidelines (USSG). 2 Because there is insufficient evidence in the record that Hollis was represented by counsel or validly waived his right to counsel in proceedings leading to a prior conviction on which a sentence under the Armed Career Criminal Act was predicated, we vacate and remand for resentencing. We also vacate his conviction as a felon in possession of a firearm 3 because it is multiplicitous.
