United States v. Melvin B. Brown

ORDER Upon consideration of the joint motion to remand the record, it is ORDERED that the motion be granted, and that the record in this appeal be remanded to the district court “for the limited purpose of allowing it to determine whether it would have imposed a different sentence, materially more favorable to the defendant, had it been fully aware of the post-Booker sentencing regime.” United States v.

The district court is requested to notify this court promptly upon its determination of the question on remand. The parties are directed to file motions to govern further proceedings within 30 days of the district court’s notification.
