Federal Sentencing Guide

by Roger Haines, Jennifer Woll, and J. Douglas Wilson

The Standard Reference on the
Federal Sentencing Guidelines

Top defense lawyers, probation officers, and U.S. Attorney’s offices around the country have been depending on the Federal Sentencing Guide since the Guidelines were enacted.  Here’s why:

  • Comprehensive.  The Guide summarizes and organizes every issue of every appellate-level federal sentencing decision published since the Sentencing Guidelines were enacted in 1987.  14,000 cases are digested in 7,000 pages.

  • Well-organized.  A detailed topical index closely tracks the Guidelines.  Within each topic, the cases are organized by circuit and each summary begins with a boldfaced, single-sentence statement of the holding. 

  • Timely.  The Guide’s newsletter is published every two weeks, and is produced and shipped in less than 48 hours, so you receive summaries of the very latest cases.  A new index is provided every two months, and the summaries are organized by topic into an annual softcover digest.  Citations are include all subsequent history, and are continually updated.

Reliable.  The authors are national authorities on federal sentencing and co-authors of the leading sentencing treatise.

Federal Sentencing Guide includes:

  1. A full-text CD-ROM contains the entire database of 14,000 case summaries.  Digested for you is every issue of every appellate-level case since 1987, when the Guidelines went into effect.  Selected pre-guideline cases are also included.  Perform word, topic, or case-name searches in seconds.  No installation is required before use.

  2. Three hardbound volumes contain the last ten years of case summaries.  The hardbound volumes are organized by issue and then circuit.  Finding aids include a descriptive word index, table of cases, and table of contents.  Each volume averages 1,000 pages.

  3. A softcover cumulative supplement, published annually and organized by topic, covers the cases summarized since the last hardbound volume.  It also includes a descriptive word index, tables of cases, and table of contents.

  4. Biweekly newsletters report all the new decisions in every circuit.  New subscribers receive all newsletters published since the latest softcover supplement, so you will have no coverage gaps.  Bimonthly cumulative indexes cover all cases published since the latest supplement.
