With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". (Table). Under 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a), a defendant has the right to appeal (1) a sentence imposed in violation of the law, (2) a sentence imposed as a result of an incorrect application of the Guidelines, and (3) an upward departure from the Guidelines. United States v. Smith, 918 F.2d 664, 667 (6th Cir.1990) (paraphrasing 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a)). Because Lively is challenging her sentence on the grounds that the district court failed to consider certain directives contained in the sentencing reform act of 1984, specifically 18 U.S.C. §§ 3553(a) & 3582(a), Lively is appealing her sentence on the grounds that it was imposed in violation of the law. Consequently, this is an appealable issue under 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a)(1). See, e.g., United States v. Byrd, 984 F.2d 251, 252 (8th Cir.1993) (<HOLDING>) (citation omitted). The parties agree that,

A: holding that defendants appeal based on the district courts alleged error in not considering defendants medical condition when sentencing defendant in violation of  3553a2d was appealable under  3742a1
B: holding that the district courts error in calculating the amount of drugs at issue was harmless because the error had no impact on the defendants sentence
C: holding district courts decision to increase a defendants sentence from 71 to 108 months based on defendants disrespect for the law constituted clear error in judgement in balancing the sentencing factors
D: holding that sentencing error is harmless if the error did not affect the district courts selection of the sentence imposed
