1Opinion of the Court
CARDAMONE, Circuit Judge:
Steven Keller appeals from the sentence imposed on him by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (Wexler, J.) after he pled guilty to the crime of possessing a firearm while a convicted felon. His principal contention is that the sentencing court erred by not crediting against his federal sentence the time he had already served in state prison for the offense in which the firearm was used.
The nub of the problem on this appeal is seen by examining the different provisions found in the sentencing guidelines at the time of Keller’s offense…
