United States v. Hernandez-Negron, No. 19-2021 (1st Cir. 2021)
Annotate this Case
The First Circuit affirmed Defendant's sentence of eighty-four months' imprisonment imposed in connection with his plea of guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm, holding that the sentence was neither procedurally nor substantively unreasonable.
On appeal, Defendant argued, among other things, that the district court erred by quashing subpoenas issued to victims and by imposing a sentence that Defendant argued was both procedurally and substantively unreasonable. The First Circuit affirmed, holding (1) the district court's quashing of the subpoenas did not violate Defendant's due process rights; and (2) the upwardly variant sentence was both procedurally and substantively reasonable.
