Judge ABJ is rejecting the defense's argument that
the enhancement should not apply. "I believe it's
not a valid argument," she said. She's starting at
level 40 for that enhancement.





All hail our intrepid reporters, manor!!!

So he's definitely not getting a full 10 consecutive. Manafort might actually survive long enough to be free.

in regards to false statement with regard to Mr. Klimnik." —

Now they are haggling over whether the conspiracy
count contains allegations of loan fraud. The defense says it does.

Manafort's lawyer Kevin Downing asks Jackson to
consider that the superseding information references
the bank fraud, re: her consideration of what
needs to run concurrent to the EDVA sentence.
Jackson says bank fraud isn't encompassed in the
fraud conspiracy count he pleaded to
