How courts have described this case

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

  • finding that a defendant’s denial on arrest that he knew a suspect was not obstructive because the suspect had already informed officers of the defendant’s involvement in the conspiracy
  • vacating and remanding for resentencing after a hearing to determine whether the defendant committed perjury
  • explaining 13 that while it “may be true” that defendant’s “testimony was so inherently 14 untruthful that the factual prerequisites to a perjury enhancement are 15 obvious,” this “cannot relieve the district court of the burden of making its 16 own independent findings”
  • “PSR’s conclusions were not sufficient to support an obstruction enhancement.”
