United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided July 19, 2000


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Colin S. Bruce (argued), Office of the U.S. Atty., Urbana, IL, for United States.

David B. Mote (argued), Office of the Fed. Public Defender, Springfield, IL, for Myris S. Matthews.

Before CUDAHY, FLAUM, and MANION, Circuit Judges.


FLAUM, Circuit Judge.

Myris Matthews pleaded guilty to one count of possession of cocaine base ("crack") with the intent to distribute. See 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). He was sentenced to 240 months imprisonment and five years supervised release. Matthews appeals his sentence, arguing that the district court erred by giving him a two-level upward adjustment for a supervisory role under U.S. S. G. § 3B 1.1 (c). We affirm.
