| Bradley v. United States, No. 05-4349,

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Had defendant known that he would face a maximum of 30 years' imprisonment, rather than the projected 90 years, whether or not he pleaded, he may have opted to try his case; given the uncertainty regarding counsel's sentencing advice and whether it impacted defendant's decision to plead, district court should have granted an evidentiary hearing.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT, March 30, 2007, Decided

|||||
Overview: Imposition of sentence within guidelines range following defendant's conviction for being in United States without permission after his removal, a violation of 8 U.S.C.S. §§ 1326(a), (b)(2), was not unreasonable because absence of a fast-track program was not an acceptable reason for imposing a sentence below the guidelines range.
