A post-Booker burden of proof primer

I have already highlighted, in posts here and here, Judge Joseph Bataillon's significant recent discussion of due process and burdens of proof in US v. Okai, 2005 WL 2042301 (D. Neb. Aug. 22, 2005).  And, inspired by Steve Sady's effective coverage of Okai and these important topics in this post at the Ninth Circuit Blog, I have assembled below just some of my major post-Booker posts on burden of proof issues:

• Burdens of proof and a new due process of sentencing
• More about beyond a reasonable doubt at sentencing
• Requiring proof beyond a reasonable doubt in any legislative fix
• Further reflections on burdens of proof and acquitted conduct
• Judge Gertner on drug statute and burden of proof
• Another potent district court Booker opinion (from my backyard)
• Revised draft of Pondering Modern Sentencing Process
• Sixth Circuit ruling shows importance of burden of proof
