Federal 7th Circuit Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Dist. Ct. did not err in sentencing defendant to 51-month term of incarceration on mail fraud charge even though Dist. Ct. declined to grant defendant's request for lower offense level arising out of his acceptance of responsibility based on his guilty plea. Record showed that defendant violated his pretrial release conditions by traveling to St. Louis and entering into fraudulent residential sales contract for $2.6 million home, and said violation constituted continuation of criminal conduct for purposes of denying defendant's request for reduction of his offense level.
