United States Third Circuit

In a sentencing challenge based on the government's alleged breach of a plea agreement that made no mention of the five-level enhancement that the court imposed pursuant to USSG section 4B1.5(b), the sentence is affirmed, where: 1) no provision of the written plea agreement, nor any statement by the government or the district court, established that the defendant was immune from a chapter 4 enhancement; and 2) the sentence was not substantively unreasonable because it fell within the guidelines range, and the defendant had waived other appellate challenges.
