David Joseph Bunevacz v. United States
1. Whether petitioner David Joseph Bunevacz's convictions should be reversed because the government breached the plea agreement, in violation of this Court's admonition in Santobello v. New York, 404 U.S. 257, 262 (1971), that when a plea rests in any significant degree on a promise or agreement of the prosecutor, such promise must be fulfilled.
2. Whether the Ninth Circuit's decision conflicts with decisions in other Circuit Courts, which have held that conduct such as the government's in this case constitutes a breach of the plea agreement requiring reversal.
Whether the government's breach of a plea agreement by requesting legally invalid sentencing enhancements and advocating for an upward departure warrants reversal of convictions under Santobello v. New York
