Text: 3 Walton was indicted for armed bank robbery and assault, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 2113(a) and (d) and § 924(c) (count I), and for being a felon in possession of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. App. II § 1202(a) (count II). Walton pleaded guilty to both charges and the district court sentenced him to ten years imprisonment under 18 U.S.C. §§ 2113(a) and (d), a consecutive five-year term under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c), and a concurrent two-year term under 18 U.S.C. App. II § 1202(a). 4 Walton then filed a motion pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255, claiming that he should not have been sentenced for the 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) charge because it was a separate offense and therefore count I was duplicitous. The district court denied the motion. We remanded the case for resentencing with instructions not to impose a sentence under 18 U.S.C. § 924(c). Walton v. United States, No. 86-2598, unpublished memorandum decision (9th Cir. Nov. 9, 1987). 5 The district court resentenced Walton to a ten-year term of imprisonment under 18 U.S.C. §§ 2113(a) and (d), a concurrent two year term under 18 U.S.C. App. II § 1202(a), and imposed a special assessment fee of $100. The district court gave Walton credit for all time spent in custody since his arrest and dismissed the 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) charge. Walton timely appealed.
