U.S. v. BELTRAN

No. 96-1271.

109 F.3d 365 (1997)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Armando BELTRAN, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided March 21, 1997.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Barry Rand Elden, Chief of Appeals, Eddie Stephens (argued), Office of U.S. Atty., Criminal Appellate Division, Chicago, IL, for plaintiff-appellee.

Michael F. Lefkow (argued), James Slater, Chicago, IL, defendant-appellant.

Before EASTERBROOK, MANION, and ROVNER, Circuit Judges.

MANION, Circuit Judge.

Armando Beltran claims he sold cocaine only once, and then only for a good cause. He pleaded guilty; but at sentencing the district court declined to provide either a downward departure or a downward adjustment in Beltran's offense level for being a "minor or minimal participant." Because he believes the court unfairly relied upon certain information in arriving at these decisions, Beltran appeals. We affirm.
