United States Seventh Circuit

Conviction and sentence on drug charges are affirmed despite defendant's arguments that: 1) his Sixth Amendment right to trial by an impartial jury of his peers was violated when the district court transferred his case between divisions within the same district; 2) the district court abused its discretion in admitting evidence of his prior cocaine sales; 3) the district court erred in calculating his sentence.
