United States v. Reyes-Solosa

Defendant appealed her post-revocation sentence imposed consecutively to her criminal sentence for illegal reentry. The court held that a district court can continue post-revocation sentencing for a reasonable time to consider a supervised releasee's sentence in the underlying criminal proceeding as part of evaluating the supervised releasee's breach of trust; in this case, the district court's approximately three-week continuance was not unreasonable under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1; and defendant's twelve-month post-revocation sentence was within the Guidelines range and was not substantively unreasonable in light of the 18 U.S.C. 3553(a) sentencing factors. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment of the district court. View "United States v. Reyes-Solosa" on Justia Law
