United States v. Candelario-Ramos, No. 20-1988 (1st Cir. 2022)
Annotate this Case
The First Circuit dismissed Appellant's appeal from his mandatory minimum sixty-month sentence, holding that Appellant knowingly and voluntarily agreed to an appeal waiver, barring this appeal.
Pursuant to a written agreement, Appellant pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine. The sentencing court sentenced Defendant to sixty months' imprisonment and eight years of supervised release. Appellant appealed, stating that enforcing his appeal waive would work a miscarriage of justice. The First Circuit dismissed the appeal, holding that even if Appellant hadn't waived his argument on appeal, there was no miscarriage of justice.
