United States Seventh Circuit

Conviction for possession of a firearm by a felon is affirmed over defendant's challenges to the search warrant that uncovered the weapon and the admission of evidence concerning money found in his home, but the sentence is reversed and remanded for re-sentencing where it was unclear whether the district court properly took its post-Booker discretion into account during sentencing.
