How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that the district court’s denial of aceeptance-of-responsibility credit based on conduct “beyond the offense of conviction” lacked a proper foundation
  • defen- dant’s refusal to accept responsibility for ‘‘any offense other than the offense that is the subject of the plea’’ cannot be used to deny defendant sentencing benefit (emphasis in original; internal quotation marks omit- ted)
  • conduct charged in the indictment, together with the stipulation of facts agreed to by defendant and the government, constitutes the full scope of the conduct comprising the offense of conviction which the defendant must truthfully admit in order to demonstrate acceptance of responsibility
