United States Seventh Circuit

Conviction and sentence for wire fraud are affirmed over defendant's arguments that: 1) the district court erred in denying his motion to withdraw his guilty pleas based on actual innocence; 2) an ordered forfeiture was invalid because it was ordered under statutes other than those listed in the indictment; 3) he was given insufficient notice of the planned forfeiture; 4) the district court erroneously refused to grant him a reduction in his offense level for acceptance of responsibility; 5) the district court erred in imposing various special conditions of supervised release; 6) the district court erred in its description of the monetary penalties in the written order; and 7) the district court-s fact-finding regarding the amount of loss caused by his fraud violated the Sixth Amendment.
