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.
-
Well-Organized —
A detailed topical index drafted by co-author Roger Haines, a former
member of the Sentencing Commission, 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 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 every six months the cases are cumulated by topic into a
soft-cover digest.
-
Reliable —
The authors are national authorities on federal sentencing law and
co-authors of the leading sentencing treatise. In addition, Roger Haines
served as Special Counsel at the Sentencing Commission, is a member of
the Attorney General’s Advisory Subcommittee on the Sentencing
Guidelines, and is on the Board of Advisors of the Federal Sentencing
Reporter.
