In US v. Ortiz, No. 08-2648, the court affirmed defendant’s sentence for various firearms and narcotics offenses, holding that the sentence did not violate the Ex Post Facto Law clause because defendant’s sentencing range under the unamended Sentencing Guidelines would have been 151 to 188 months, under the amended Guidelines the range would have been 168 to 210 months, and the district court imposed a non-Guidelines sentence of 120 months.
