Laforest Carmichael, aka LaForrest Carmichael v. United States
Should this Court resolve the current circuit split over whether a sentencing judge must consider the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors when imposing a sentence for a supervised release violation that requires mandatory revocation?
Where there is a five-year gap between a supervised release violation and probation's petition to revoke release on that violation, and during that period the supervisee has no other violations, is it substantively unreasonable to impose a statutory maximum three-year sentence for the violation?
