UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Ricardo SCARANO, Defendant-Appellant

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided February 20, 1996No. 94-10213PublishedCited by 28 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

REA, District Judge:

Appellant Ricardo Scarano appeals from a judgment and sentence of the district court imposing consecutive terms of incarceration for two counts of mail fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1341. Scarano contends that the district court’s decision to impose the sentences consecutively, rather than concurrently, violated the Double Jeopardy Clause. Alternatively, Scarano contends that the district court’s imposition of consecutive sentences violated the Sentencing Guidelines. We have jurisdiction over the instant appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. § 3742, and we affirm.
