Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit November 15, 1993, 92-7031 (United States v. Timothy Curtis Ballard)

*1503

BIRCH, Circuit Judge:

This case presents the first impression issue for our circuit of whether a district court is authorized to make a federal sentence consecutive to a state sentence not yet imposed for pending state charges. On the facts of this case, the district court determined that it could impose such a sentence. We AFFIRM.

I.
