United States First Circuit

The district court's enhancement of defendant's sentence for carjacking is proper under section 2B3.1 of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and it did not commit plain error, under Blakely v. Washington, 124 S. Ct. 2531 (2004), in finding the facts underlying the enhancements of defendant's sentence.
