|||||
Overview: District court erred in dismissing inmate's pro se § 1983 suit under 28 U.S.C.S. § 1915A on ground that it was untimely filed. An initial letter that inmate sent to district court should have been docketed as civil rights complaint, even though inmate did not meet C.D. Ill. Civ. R. 16.3(A)(8) requirements. That letter tolled statute of limitations.

|||||
Overview: Pretrial detention of alien charged with removability under 8 U.S.C.S. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii), (a)(2)(B)(i), counted toward five-year period of time he served for felony for purposes of INA § 212(c) because detention was related to crime of conviction as 18 U.S.C.S. § 3585(b) gave him benefit of credit toward service of sentence for time he served.

|||||
Overview: District court properly granted U.S.'s motion for seizure and condemnation of prescription drug pharmaceutical company attempted to import into U.S. for repackaging and distribution because exemption in 21 U.S.C.S. § 353(a), as implemented by 21 C.F.R. § 201.150, did not excuse company's compliance with an FDA-approved new drug application.

|||||
Overview: Defendant's sentence to statutory maximum of 240 months, 30 months above guidelines range, for his possession of child pornography conviction under 18 U.S.C.S. § 2252A(a)(5) was affirmed because district court believed he was unable to abstain from victimizing children and wanted to protect potential victims from him for as long as possible.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Defendant's 78-month sentence was reasonable because it was less than applicable guidelines range of 180 months pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 5G1.1(b) and district court justified overall sentence in light of 18 U.S.C.S. § 3553(a) factors, including circumstances giving rise to offense and defendant's lack of prior criminality.

|||||
Overview: Argument that a district court erred by refusing to dismiss an indictment for a violation of 8 U.S.C.S. § 1326(a) on statute of limitations grounds under 18 U.S.C.S. § 3282 would have been frivolous because the statute was not triggered until immigration officials knew of defendant's unlawful presence in the country after having been deported.

|||||
Overview: Sentence imposed upon defendant's conviction for dealing in firearms without a license was affirmed because USSG § 2K2.1(a)(5) was properly used to calculate sentence as 18 U.S.C.S. § 921(a)(30) was in effect when defendant committed offense and USSG § 2K2.1(a)(5) appeared in 2005 version of guidelines under which he properly was sentenced.
