United States v. Rodriguez-Monserrate, No. 20-1905 (1st Cir. 2021)
Annotate this Case
The First Circuit affirmed Defendant's sentences that he received at hearings conducted via videoconference during the COVID-19 pandemic, holding that all but one of Defendant's challenges were waived or otherwise without merit and that Defendant's remaining challenge was not ripe for review.
Specifically, the First Circuit held (1) Defendant's arguments challenging the district court's procedure in conducting his revocation hearing were waived; (2) Defendant's revocation was both procedurally and substantively reasonable; (3) the trial court did not plainly err in conducting its Fed. R. Crim. P. 11(b)(1)(N) inquiry; and (4) Defendant failed to establish error sufficiently grave to warrant setting aside his otherwise valid appeal waiver.
