UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Appeal from the United States Plaintiff-Appellee, District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. v. No. 02 CR 30086 RONALD E. BLAKE, Defendant-Appellant. G. Patrick Murphy, Chief Judge.

ORDER

The defendant-appellant was not given his right of allocution after the case was remanded for resentencing. The government agrees that the judge made a mistake but says that it was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. We are less sure of that proposition.

Accordingly, the case is remanded again for resentencing and this time the defendant-appellant must be accorded his allocution rights.
