No. 13-3644
Decision Date: 
May 29, 2015
Federal District: 
E.D. Wisc.
Holding: 
Appeal dismissed
Ct. of Appeals dismissed as moot defendant’s appeal of term of supervised release that required that he repay total of $1,077,500 in monthly payments not less than $100. Defendant argued on appeal that such term was improper because it was not conditioned on his ability to make such monthly payments, and Dist. Ct., during pendency of appeal, added ability to pay to said term. Ct. held that Dist. Ct. retained jurisdiction under 18 USC section 3583(e)(2) to alter said term during pendency of appeal, and that Dist. Ct.’s action rendered defendant’s appeal moot.
