Description

CACHERIS, District Judge In 1989, this Court affirmed Paul Luskin's conviction on numerous charges relating to his attempt to have his estranged wife Marie Luskin killed. Shortly thereafter, Luskin was sentenced to a long prison term, and he has appealed this sentence. Among other things, Luskin has raised a question that has not been previously addressed by this circuit: when is it permissible to sentence a defendant to consecutive periods of imprisonment for separate convictions under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c)? That subsection prohibits the carrying or using of a firearm during a ""crime of violence"" or a ""drug trafficking crime."" As punishment, it provides for a fixed, mandatory and non-parolable term of imprisonment that must be served consecutive to any other sentence. Ultimately, we reject Luskin's argument that he was improperly given consecutive sentences under subsection 924(c), and we also reject his other claims of error regarding sentencing.1 I.
