CARNES, Circuit Judge,
concurring in part and dissenting in part:
I concur in the holding that the district court erred in enhancing the Alperts’ sentence for obstruction of justice under U.S.S.G. § 3C1.1, and I join Part II.A of Judge Black’s opinion for the Court. For the reasons stated in Part II of Judge Birch’s dissenting opinion, I dissent from the holding that the district court in sentencing Carl Alpert erred when it departed upward because of the duration of the conduct and the *1110number of different fraudulent actions and schemes involved.
