Decided June 21, 1990No. 90-1055PublishedCited by 67 opinions
1Per curiam
At the sentencing hearing, the district court increased defendant’s offense level upon finding that during the commission of defendant’s drug conspiracy offense defendant had (1) possessed a firearm and (2) acted as an organizer or leader.
