Does a federal court's failure to conduct a foreseeability analysis to determine the amount attributable to each defendant convicted of conspiracy to commit a conspiracy to obstruct the course of justice affect sentencing?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Chapman, 29 F.3d 635 (9th Cir. 1994):

Subsequent to this change, we have held that a district court's failure to engage in a foreseeability analysis to determine the amount attributable to each defendant convicted of a conspiracy for purposes of sentencing is reversible error. See United States v. Petty, 992 F.2d 887 (9th Cir.1993).
