United States Seventh Circuit

Sentence for drug crimes is affirmed where district court properly denied defendant's motion to have his sentence retroactively amended pursuant to the amended Sentencing Guideline section 2D1.1, as defendant was not sentenced on the basis of a crack cocaine quantity but instead under the unamended Guidelines' career offender provision.
