United States v. Bedolla-Zavala

Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided July 2, 2010No. 09-3690PublishedCited by 10 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

RIPPLE, Circuit Judge.

Jose Bedolla-Zavala pleaded guilty to one count of distribution of cocaine in excess of 500 grams, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(B). The district court sentenced him to 78 months’ imprisonment. Mr. Bedolla-Zavala now appeals his sentence, contending that the district court erred in applying a sentencing enhancement for obstruction of justice. See U.S.S.G. § 3C1.1, Application Note 4(h). Because we conclude that the district court’s application of the obstruction enhancement was correct, we affirm Mr. Bedolla-Zavala’s sentence.
