United States v. Danford Taylor-Walter

[DO NOT PUBLISH] IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT ________________________ FILED U.S. COURT OF APPEALS No. 05-13244 ELEVENTH CIRCUIT APRIL 26, 2006 ________________________ THOMAS K. KAHN CLERK D. C. Docket No. 04-00483-CR-T-24-TGW UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, versus DANFORD TAYLOR-WALTER, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida _________________________ (April 26, 2006) Before ANDERSON, FAY and SILER*, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: _____________________ *Honorable Eugene E. Siler, Jr., United States Circuit Judge for the Sixth Circuit, sitting by designation. We note that appellant does not challenge his conviction, and it is accordingly affirmed. After oral argument and careful consideration, we conclude that the appellant’s sentence is also due to be affirmed. The government’s challenge to the court’s jurisdiction to review the sentence for reasonableness is foreclosed by our decision in United States v. Martinez, 434 F.3d 1318 (11th Cir. 2006). Appellant’s challenges to the district court’s denial of the safety-valve adjustment and a minor role reduction, as well as his challenge to the reasonableness of his sentence, are rejected for the reasons discussed at oral argument. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. 2
