Description
Paul Jerome Story appeals his sentence contending that the district court improperly calculated his base level offense using facts not found by a jury or admitted by plea, in violation of United States v. Booker, 125 S.Ct. 738 (2005). The government responds that the district judge provided an alternative sentence in the event that Booker declared the Federal Sentencing Guidelines ("Guidelines") advisory rather than mandatory. We find the district judges pronouncement of alternative sentences ambiguous and therefore VACATE and REMAND for resentencing.
