Description
This is an appeal by a convicted drug trafficker from a thirty-year prison sentence imposed after the district court determined that the defendant is a "career offender." On appeal the defendant argues that there is an inconsistency in two provisions of the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, 28 U.S.C. § 991 et seq., the statute which created the United States Sentencing Commission and defined its duties. The defendant contends that these inconsistencies resulted in Congress' failing to give the Commission an "intelligible principle" by which the Commission could draft the career offender provisions of the sentencing guidelines. Having considered the defendant's arguments at length, we affirm.
