After federal indictment but before sentencing if you are convicted of another crime (a state crime) can that conviction be used to enhance criminal history points?

I don't really know a lot about it but it seems as if you've left out a lot of important information that could affect the sentence. That being the case it sounds as if you know quite a bit about it or are familiar with the terminology.

The situation you describe certainly cannot be good for you. A lot depends on what the potential sentence on the state crime would be.

This should provide you a bit of relevant information.
