Question Presented (AI Summary)
Whether the Fifth Circuit violated federal law in sentencing review
Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTIONS PRESENTED I. Whether the Fifth Circuit violated federal law when it conducted a cursory review of the facts related to a four-level increase in sentencing points pursuant to 0,83 536. § 3Bl.1(a) because the Government did not show by a preponderance of the evidence that Carlos Alejandro Zuniga-Garcia acted in the role of a leader or organizer; 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, upon review, should reverse the judgment of the Fifth Cireuit. aL.
