7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: United States of America v. Steven A. Adams
Case No.: 18-2932
Officials: BAUER, HAMILTON, and ST. EVE, Circuit Judges.
Focus: Sentencing Guidelines
Defendant Steven Adams pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm. In this appeal, he challenges the district court’s denial of his motion to suppress and its application of the Sentencing Guidelines to his case. We affirm. Probable cause supported the search warrant for Adams’ house, and in any event the officers could rely on the warrant in good faith. Further, the district court properly calculated Adams’ guideline range, taking into account his prior drug conspiracy conviction.
