United States v. Brown, Case No. 05-1068, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT, January 23, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: The imposition of supervised release following a maximum 24-month prison term pursuant to 18 U.S.C.S. § 3583(h) was error because, although there was no violation of the Ex Post Facto Clause, 18 U.S.C.S. § 3583(h) permitted imposition of supervised release only where the district court imposed less than the maximum prison term.
