If the guidelines sentence range exceeds the statutory maximum for a given offense, the statutory maximum is the upper limit of the guidelines range. If the guidelines range is below the nonsuspendable mandatory minimum, that minimum is the lower limit of the guidelines range. The adjusted guidelines range for first degree murder is always a term of "life to life" and should replace the calculated guidelines range.
