United States Eleventh Circuit

Sentence for possession of ammunition by a convicted felon is affirmed over claims that the district court erred: 1) by finding that defendant used the ammunition in connection with another felony offense; and 2) under U.S. v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005), by enhancing his sentence based on facts not proven to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt and sentencing him under a mandatory Guidelines system.
