Gall v. United States 552 U.S. 38 (2007) was a decision by the United States Supreme Court which held that the federal appeals courts may not presume that a sentence falling outside the range recommended by the Federal Sentencing Guidelines is unreasonable. Applying this rule to the case at hand it upheld a sentence of 36 months’ probation imposed on a man who pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute ecstasy in the face of a recommended sentence of 30 to 37 months in prison.
