Federal 7th Circuit Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Dist. Ct. did not err in sentencing defendants in crack cocaine distribution charges without giving retroactive application to Fair Sentencing Act, even though application of said Act would have resulted in lower sentencing guideline ranges. Said Act had effective date of August 3, 2010, and defendants' conduct occurred prior to said date. Moreover, result is same even though sentencing itself occurred after effective date of Act.
