A high-profile appeal on acquitted conduct sentencing

This lengthy article in the Daily Report, Atlanta’s legal paper, details some of the particulars of Friday’s oral arguments in the Eleventh Circuit in the appeal by former Atlanta mayor Bill Campbell.  As the article notes, I accepted this “high-profile case in hopes of drawing attention to the acquitted conduct issue.”  In addition to providing an extended account of the oral arguments, the Daily Report provides links to Campbell’s main brief and reply brief and to the government’s brief.

Since I took on this case last year, I have not blogged at all about the particulars.  And this will likely be my last post about the case until a decision is rendered by the Eleventh Circuit (which I hope will come before too long).
