United States Second Circuit
US v. Williams, 05-4928, 05-4956
Convictions of drug trafficking conspiracy and related crimes, and decision by district court not to resentence defendants on remand, are affirmed as to one defendant over claims that the court used an improper legal standard when determining whether to resentence him, and that the sentence imposed was unreasonable. Appeal by other defendant is dismissed as moot as he completed service of his term and was deported.
