United States v. Gee
United States v. Gee
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Nancy Stomberg Gee appeals from the sentence imposed following her guilty-plea conviction for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute and to distribute methamphetamine, possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and distribution of methamphetamine, all in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and 18 U.S.C. § 2.
The district court erred by concluding that, in light of the Supreme Court’s holding in United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005), it could not apply the safety valve statute, 18 U.S.C. § 3553(f). See United States v. Cardenas-Juarez, 469 F.3d 1331, 1334 (9th Cir. 2006). We vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing without regard to the mandatory minimum.
VACATED and REMANDED for re-sentencing.
