United States v. Douglas, No. 15-1208 (7th Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CaseAppellant was convicted of failing to register as a sex offender. A federal district court sentenced Appellant to thirty months in prison, five years of supervised release, a special assessment, and a fine. As part of the sentence, the district court imposed several special conditions of supervised release. Appellant did not object to any of these conditions in the district court, but he challenged them on appeal, arguing that they were unjustified restrictions on his liberty. The Seventh Circuit affirmed, holding that the district court did not commit plain error in its decision to impose the challenged conditions of supervised release, as the conditions imposed no greater deprivation of liberty than was reasonably necessary for the purposes of supervised release.
