Harris v. United States.

C. A. 4th Cir. Motion of petitioner for leave to proceed in forma pauperis granted. Certiorari granted limited to the following question: “Given that a finding of ‘brandishing,’ as used in 18 U. S. C. § 924 (c)(1)(A), results in an increased mandatory minimum sentence, must the fact of ‘brandishing’ be alleged in the indictment and proved beyond a reasonable doubt?”
