Criminal Court
Supervised Release
Citation
Case Number: 
No. 12-3332
Decision Date: 
August 25, 2014
Federal District: 
N.D. Ill., E. Div.
Holding: 
Affirmed
Dist. Ct. did not err in denying defendant-prisoner’s habeas petition that had challenged any imposition of 3-year term of supervised release, where trial court had failed to mention imposition of term of supervised release during defendant’s sentencing hearing. Illinois statute makes supervised release mandatory for defendant’s charged offense, such that omission of term of supervised release in original judgment did not make unlawful any imposition of 3-year term of supervised release as part of defendant’s sentence. As such, Dist. Ct. did not err in finding that defendant was required to serve both 26-year sentence mentioned in judgment, as well as 3-year term of supervised release.
