Defendant pleaded guilty to one count of possession with the intent to distribute and was ordered to serve a prison term of 87 months. On appeal, defendant argued that the district court’s decision not to vary downward during sentencing with respect to defendant’s criminal history category was the result of procedural errors. The Seventh Circuit affirmed, finding that the district court did not make any procedural errors during sentencing. (BRENNAN and ST. EVE, concurring)
