1Opinion of the Court

KANNE, Circuit Judge.

John J. Montani challenges his conviction and sentence for mail fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1341. A jury convicted Montani in March 1999 of defrauding his employer, Sears, Roebuck & Co. (Sears), of the proceeds from the liquidation sale of furniture and also defrauding Sears of the benefit of his honest services, as that term is incorporated into 18 U.S.C. § 1346. Then-District Judge Ann Claire Williams calculated Montani’s offense level for a crime involving more than $500,000 and sentenced Montani to forty-one months in prison. We affirm Montani’s conviction and sentence.
