United States Second Circuit

Following defendants' plea of guilty to drug distribution and gun charges stemming from a long‐running drug trafficking conspiracy, the district court's imposition of mandatory minimum sentences on both counts is affirmed, where: 1) neither U.S.S.G. section 5G1.3(b) nor 18 U.S.C. section 3584(a) authorizes a district court to run a term of imprisonment concurrently with a discharged term of imprisonment on related charges; and 2) those provisions' distinctions between discharged and undischarged terms are not irrational.
