United States v. Derrick Davis - Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals Opinion

The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the sentence of Derrick Davis, who was convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm. The court found an irreconcilable conflict in the district court's sentencing, where it adopted factual findings against enhancement for possession in connection with another felony, but then credited government arguments for enhancement based on a jail call. The case is remanded for resentencing.
