Jarbarri Randale Wall v. United States
Immigration JusticiabilityDoctri
The district court imposed a special condition of supervised release that the defendant abstain from the use of alcoholic beverages, not associate with persons using alcoholic beverages, and not use medicine containing alcohol without a prescription or probation officer's approval.
The defendant signed a plea agreement waiving appeal except for a sentence above the statutory maximum.
Is the imposition of a special condition of supervised release, which is not permitted by statutory authority, a sentence above the statutory maximum and is therefore outside the scope of an appeal waiver?
