United States v. Narvaez-Soto, No. 13-1963 (1st Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseDefendant pleaded guilty to carjacking resulting in serious bodily injury and carriage of a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence. After a disposition hearing, the district court varied upward and imposed a 240-month term of immurement on the first count to be followed by a 120-month term on the second count. Defendant appealed, challenging both the procedural and substantive reasonableness of his sentence. The First Circuit affirmed, holding that the district court met its obligation to impose a sentence that was “sufficient, but not greater than necessary” to accomplish the goals of sentencing and that Defendant’s sentence fell “within the expansive universe of reasonable sentences.”
