Question Presented (from Petition)
1) In light of this Court's holdings in Johnson v. U.S 135 S. Ct. 2551, 2563 (2015), does § 17-22.5-403 C.R.S. violate Mr. Williams' and other similarly situated Colorado defendants' due process protections in that it allows the Colorado Dept, of Corrections Time Computation Dept., to utilize a noncategorical approach to determine whether the defendant's prior convictions are "crimes of violence, " for sentence enhancement under that statute?
