Question Presented (OCR Extract)

Whether the Fifth Circuit violated federal law when it conducted a cursory review of the facts related to a warranted twolevel adjustment under U.S.S.G. § 3B1.2 (b) because Garces’ role in a drug related offense was minor; and because the proper application of the sentencing guidelines is of exceptional importance to the administration of justice in federal criminal cases, this Court should decide this question and, and upon review, should reverse the judgment of the Fifth Circuit. i ot
