Text: 2 Ronald Randall pleaded guilty to bank robbery. Applying the United States Sentencing Guidelines (USSG), the Presentence Investigation Report (PSR) recommended a total offense level of twenty-one and a criminal history category of IV. The calculation of Randall's criminal history category was based on prior auto theft and aggravated robbery convictions for which he had been incarcerated approximately twenty-six years. Randall argued no points should have been assessed for the theft sentence because he had not served any portion of this sentence during the last fifteen years. See USSG § 4A1.2(e). The district court, however, concluded the theft sentence should be counted and sentenced Randall to fifty-seven months' imprisonment, the low end of the applicable Guideline range. Randall appeals this sentence, arguing the district court erred in including the theft sentence in its calculation of Randall's criminal history category. This court exercises jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. § 3742 and affirms Randall's sentence.
