UNITED STATES of America, Appellee, v. Michael L. ARNOLD, Appellant, 130 F. App'x 73

PER CURIAM. Michael L. Arnold appeals the sentence that the district court imposed after he pleaded guilty to knowingly possessing a stolen firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(j). The sentence calculations included, in relevant part, a base offense level of 24 under U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(a)(2); a 2-level enhancement under U.S.S.G. § 2K2.1(b)(4) for possession of a stolen firearm; and a Category VI criminal history based on 14 criminal history points. The district court sentenced Arnold to 92 months in prison (the bottom of the relevant Sentencing Guidelines imprisonment range) and 3 years supervised release.

On appeal, Arnold reiterates objections he made below that the district court (1) erred in imposing the

section 2K2.1(b)(4) enhancement because it resulted in double counting, and (2) erred in calculating his criminal history by separately counting prior sentences that were ordered to run concurrently with one another. He argues for the first time that the district court’s calculation of the base offense level and imposition of the

section 2K2.1(b)(4) enhancement violated Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004). Arnold’s arguments fail for the following reasons. First, a 2-level enhancement under

section 2K2.1(b)(4) did not constitute double counting because Arnold’s base offense level was calculated under

section 2K2.1(a)(2), not

section 2K2.1(a)(7). See United States v. Hawkins, 181 F.3d 911, 912 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 528 U.S. 981, 120 S.Ct. 436, 145 L.Ed.2d 341 (1999). Second, the district court did not err in calculating Arnold’s criminal history because the offenses at issue occurred on different occasions and were adjudicated in different Missouri counties, there is no indication they were part of a common scheme or plan, and there was no order consolidating these cases for trial or sentencing. See U.S.S.G. § 4A1.2(a)(2) & comment, (n.3).

Finally, Arnold’s Blakely arguments fail because he stipulated to a base offense level of 24 in his plea agreement, see United States v. Nguyen, 46 F.3d 781, 783 (8th Cir.1995); and he admitted that he knew the firearm was stolen — the single fact underlying the

section 2K2.1(b)(4) enhancement, see United States v. Booker, — U.S.-,-, 125 S.Ct. 738, 756, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed. . The Honorable Henry E. Autrey, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri.
