United States v. Dennis Brown

Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided April 7, 2000No. 99-2738PublishedCited by 34 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

COFFEY, Circuit Judge.

Defendant-Appellant Dennis Brown (“Brown”) received a 125-month term of imprisonment after pleading guilty to bank robbery by force or violence, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a). On direct appeal, Brown challenges the district court’s computation of his criminal history score, maintaining that his four previous aggravated and armed robbery state convictions 1 should have been treated as one offense because they formed as part of a common scheme or plan and therefore were related under U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(a)(2). We Affirm.
