U.S. v. Russell

Defendants pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to obstruct commerce by robbery and multiple counts of obstruction of commerce by robbery. On appeal, one of the defendants challenged the district court’s determination that he was competent to stand trial as well as the procedural soundness of his sentence and the second defendant objected to a supervised release condition requiring him to notify another person if his probation officer determined that he was a risk to that person. The Seventh Circuit affirmed the first defendant’s conviction and sentence but vacated the condition imposed on the second defendant’s supervised release and remanded for further proceedings. (ST. EVE and BRENNAN, concurring)
