Whether the Third Circuit Court of Appeals entered a decision in conflict with the decision of United States v. Pressler
question presented is: Whether the Third Circuit Court of Appeals entered a decision in conflict with the decision of United States v. Pressler where the evidence presented at trial showed several loosely connected conspiracies as opposed to one overarching conspiracy. The second question presented is: Whether the Third Circuit Court of Appeals entered a decision in conflict with the decision of United States v. Johnson and United States v. Diaz where the sentencing court’s factual finding attributing more than 280 grams of crack cocaine was clearly erroneous because the finding was unsupported by substantial evidence, lacked adequate evidentiary support in the record, and was against the clear weight of the evidence. i
