United States v. Carraway

Opinion

OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Darcellous Safranske Carraway and Stacey Joseph Milliner each pled guilty to bank robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C.A. § 2113(a) (West 2000), and were sentenced respectively to prison terms of sixty months and sixty-six months. They contend on appeal that the district court erred by making their sentences consecutive to the undischarged state sentences they were serving without considering factors set out in 18 U.S.C.A. § 3553(a) (West 2000), and the commentary to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 5G1.3(c), p.s. (2001). We affirm the sentences.

Carraway and Milliner maintain that the district court erred in not making explicit findings concerning the factors set out in the commentary to § 5G1.3(c). We disagree. We are satisfied from our review of the record that the district court was aware of its sentencing options, of the applicable statutes and guidelines, and was familiar with the facts of this case. The sentencing court is not required to make specific findings as to each of the § 3553(a) factors. United States v. Johnson, 138 F.3d 115, 119 (4th Cir. 1998); United States v. Velasquez, 136 F.3d 921, 924 (2d Cir. 1998).

We therefore affirm the sentences. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court *676 and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
