David Greenberg v. United States
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, No. 18-1768 · judgment May 16, 2019
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
Did the Second Circuit err in affirming Petitioner David Greenberg’s sentence without addressing (1) the sentencing court’s failure to consider the proper weight to be given Greenberg’s breach of his cooperation agreement and the sentences of other defendants in order to locate its sentence within the “boundaries of reasonableness” and (2) the unwarranted disparity of Greenberg’s 180-month sentence, a sentence more than double that imposed on any other defendant, without adequate explanation and without consideration of those other sentences?
