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 offense of carrying weapons under Iowa Code § 724.4(1) qualified as “another felony offense”
concluding that the application of U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) to a defendant whose possession of a firearm violated both Iowa Code section 724.4(1) and 18 U.S.C. § 922 (g)\does not implicate the 'double counting' concerns underlying our decision in Lindquist \
holding that when a defendant is convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm in a manner that also violates Iowa Code § 724.4(1), she or he possesses the firearm in connection with another felony offense under U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B)
deciding the omission of a reference to the underlying offense was “harmless” — “if an error at all” — “because the facts as found by the court obviously supported a charge that Walker had violated [the state statute at issue]”
affirming district court’s application of § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) enhancement for a violation of Iowa Code § 724.4(1)
affirming application of enhancement under § 2K2.1(b)(6)(B) to felon in possession of firearm, who possessed firearm in connection with violation of § 724.4(1)
