Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): convictions are impermissible when they rest on the same “unit of prosecution,” i.e., when they “punish a defendant twice for continuous possession of a firearm in furtherance of co-terminous predicate offenses involving essentially the same conduct.” United States v. Wallace, 447 F.3d 184, 187-88 (2d Cir.2006) (internal quotation marks omitted). Where, as here, predicate offenses are distinct in time and conduct, however, involvement of the same weapon will not bar consecutive sentences. See United States v. Salameh, 261 F.3d 271, 277-79 (2d Cir.2001) (upholding consecutive sentences for § 924(c)(1) violations involving same bomb, where predicate offenses were not co-terminous and punished defendant separately for carriage and use); see also United States v. Mejia, 545 F.3d at 205-06 (<HOLDING>). Moreover, overwhelming trial evidence showed 
 Holding statements: (A) holding that conviction of and punishment for both the underlying predicate offense and continuing criminal enterprise does not violate double jeopardy (B) holding motion for attorneys fees was necessary predicate (C) holding that conspiracies can serve as predicate acts for a rico conspiracy (D) recognizing that deprivation of a right was a necessary predicate to  1983 conspiracy liability (E) holding that single conspiracy connecting multiple assaults does not preclude treating assaults as separate predicate offense nor does fact that assaults are clustered in time and space merge them into one predicate crime
Output (English): recognizing that deprivation of a right was a necessary predicate to  1983 conspiracy liability
