Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Catherine M. Maraist (argued), Baton Rouge, LA, for U.S.

Craig Frank Holthaus (argued), deGravelles, Palmintier, Holthaus & Frugé, Baton Rouge, LA, for Perrin.

Before HIGGINBOTHAM, SMITH and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.


JERRY E. SMITH, Circuit Judge:

The government appeals his sentence, claiming that the district court impermissibly departed from the applicable guideline range. Because the court failed to articulate sufficient reasons to justify the departure, we vacate the sentence and remand for resentencing.
