UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. CHRISTOPHER READ (2017)

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee v. CHRISTOPHER READ, Defendant - Appellant

No. 16-11199

Decided: September 28, 2017

Before REAVLEY, SOUTHWICK, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.

Christopher Read pled guilty to one count of possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance. On appeal, he argues the district court made a clearly erroneous factual finding regarding other criminal conduct and then relied on it for purposes of sentencing. We find no evidence that the district court made such a factual finding, but even if it did, it would have been harmless error. AFFIRMED.
