United States v. Crowder, No. 13-30033 (9th Cir. 2013)
Annotate this CaseDefendant was convicted of failing to register and/or update a registration, in violation of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA), 18 U.S.C. 2250(a). On appeal, defendant challenged his sentence of 14 months' imprisonment and lifetime supervised release. Joining its sister circuits, the court held that 18 U.S.C. 3583(h), which authorized an additional term of supervised release following revocation of supervised release, permitted imposition of a lifetime term of supervised release. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment of the district court.
Court Description: Criminal Law. The panel affirmed a sentence imposed upon revocation of supervised release. The panel held that upon revocation of an initial term of supervised release, 18 U.S.C. § 3583(h) does not bar the imposition of a subsequent lifetime term of supervised release, even when accompanied by a term of imprisonment.
