How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that bias is a matter implicating a witness’s credibility and the weight to be given the testimony, which are matters within the province of the jury
• stating that where the defendant had at least one prior drug felony conviction, the district court could have imposed the maximum sentence of 30 years without violating Apprendi
• applying plain error to an Apprendi-error when Apprendi was announced between the time of defendants' trial and when we heard their appeal
• reversing because no drug quantity was alleged in the indictment or submitted to the jury
• rejecting the defendant’s argument that a sentence enhancement “based on a previous state drug offense, which in another state, would not have subjected her to punishment of more than one year, violates her right to equal protection”
• allowing supplemental briefing after oral argument in light of intervening precedent
