Lots of coastal circuit sentencing talk

By Douglas A. Berman

Busy days and bigger issues have kept me from keeping up with all of this week's circuit sentencing law, but I did notice two recent rulings from the coasts that local folk will want to give a look: From the DC Circuit, US v. Brown, No. 03-3102 (DC Cir. Feb. 29, 2008) (available here). From the Ninth Circuit, US v. Barsumyan, No. 07-50251 (9th Cir. Feb. 28, 2008) (available here). There are some especialy interesting part of Barsumyan for anyone who has thought deeply about how the post-Booker world might have been constructed to look a lot different than it looks right now.
