United States v. DaSilva, No. 15-2103 (1st Cir. 2016)
Annotate this CaseDefendant pled guilty to failing to register as a sex offender in violation of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA). The district court sentenced Defendant to time served on the SORNA violation followed by five years of supervised release. The court also imposed several conditions of release. Defendant appealed, arguing that the special conditions were not reasonably related to his conviction, his history, or the goals of sentencing. Defendant further claimed that the conditions were overbroad and imposed a greater deprivation of liberty than was reasonably necessary. The Supreme Court held that the conditions were reasonable but remanded for further clarification consistent with this opinion.
