Abstract
Good evening. This is the Philip Reed program. It is part of the Centennial Celebration of Fordham Law School. The topic tonight is entitled "Federal Sentencing Under 'Advisory' Guidelines."
There are approximately ten district judges who have written what I would refer to as challenging and influential opinions on how federal courts should approach sentencing under advisory Guidelines. We have five of them on this panel.
Our format tonight is to take short opening statements from the judges and then to discuss some particular issues of controversy in sentencing after Booker. I plan to open it up to questions and comments from the audience at the end.
