    Thanks, David. Fifteen cases across seven circuits. Eleven affirmed, two dismissed, one reversed-remanded, and three vacated-remanded. We begin in the Eleventh Circuit with a split outcome: Jamarus Hoskins’s sentence was vacated and remanded because the court ruled he acted as a thief rather than a fence, making the stolen-property enhancement improper even though his leadership-role enhancement stood.
