Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the district court erred in finding an enhanced statutory maximum of life imprisonment for a RICO conspiracy conviction without charging an enhanced sentencing provision in the indictment

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

I. Whether, pursuant to Alleyne v. United States, 570 U.S. 99, 133 S.Ct 2151, 186 L.Ed.2d 314 (2013) and Apprendi v New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S.Ct 2348, 147 L.Ed.2d 435 (2000), the district court erred in finding that the Appellant was subject to an enhanced statutory maximum of life imprisonment, rather than a maximum sentence of 20 years imprisonment, on a conviction for RICO conspiracy when the indictment did not charge an enhanced sentencing provision under 18 U.S.C. § 1963. 2
