United States Eighth Circuit


US v. Likens, 05-3917

A sentence for being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition is vacated and remanded for resentencing pursuant to the government's claim that the sentence was unreasonable where the circumstances in the case were not the kind of extraordinary circumstances which would justify a 100% downward variance from the bottom of the applicable guidelines range.
