Another FSR issue heading to press
I am pleased to report that a new Federal Sentencing Reporter issue is headed to press. This FSR issue, Volume 17, Number 3, is principally concerned with criminal history matters and was in the works before Blakely and Booker came along (although those cases find mention in the final product.)
My co-editor Nora V. Demleitner was in charge of this issue, and her introductory essay is entitled “Constitutional Challenges, Risk-based Analysis, and Criminal History Databases: More Demands on the U.S. Sentencing Commission.” That essay, along with the Table of Contents for the full issue, are available for download below.
Relatedly, details about FSR’s three recent Blakely issues are here and here and here, and the journal can be ordered here and accessed electronically here. In the coming months, the Federal Sentencing Reporter will be providing lots more Booker and Blakely coverage, so stay tuned.
