United States v. Eller, No. 10-2465 (7th Cir. 2012)
Annotate this Case
Defendant entered a plea of guilty to manufacturing marijuana, 21 U.S.C. 841(a)(1), and possession of a firearm by an unlawful user of a controlled substance, 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(3). He was convicted of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime, 18 U.S.C. 924(c) and sentenced to 60 months in prison, to be served consecutively to his 13-month sentence for the plea counts, followed by three years of supervised release, and a $300 special assessment. The Seventh Circuit affirmed, rejecting a claim that section 924(c) was void for vagueness, a challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence, and a challenge to expert testimony.
