Fifth Circuit -- USA v. Alejandro Rios-Cortes

USA v. Alejandro Rios-Cortes

Where sentence is for two years but probated for five years and the deft violates the probation and gets 180 days, the conviction still gets the sentencing bump for aggravated felony, as the original term of two years is most relevant.
Compiled by D.E. Frydrychowski, who is, not incidentally, not giving you legal advice.
