Question:
The
Armed Career Criminal Act (ACCA) triggers a mandatory-minimum sentence, and it
does not involve controlled substances.
In ACCA cases, should we be selecting both the ACCA driver and the driver for non-controlled
substance mandatory minimum?
Answer:
No,
select only ACCA driver please. The “non-controlled substance, mandatory
minimum” driver is intended to catch non-drug mand-min cases, that do not have
their own driver. Some examples include aggravated identity theft, alien
smuggling, and the receipt of child pornography.
Because ACCA does have its own driver, it should not
also be coded with the “non-controlled substance, mandatory minimum” driver.
