UNITED STATES v. LEWIS (2020)

United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Jamal LEWIS, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 19-3039

Decided: October 28, 2020

Before LOKEN, GRUENDER, and GRASZ, Circuit Judges.

David R. Mercer, Asst. Fed. Public Defender, Springfield, MO (Laine Cardarella, Fed. Public Defender, Kansas City, MO, on the brief), for defendant-appellant. Jamal Lewis, Springfield, MO, pro se. Cynthia J. Hyde, Asst. U.S. Atty., Springfield, MO, for plaintiff-appellee.

[Unpublished]

Jamal Lewis, civilly committed pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 4246 since 2012, appeals the district court's ¹ order revoking his most recent grant of conditional release. Because the district court did not clearly err in finding that Lewis failed to comply with his prescribed regimen of psychiatric care and that his continued release would therefore create a substantial risk of bodily injury to another person or serious damage to the property of another, see 18 U.S.C. § 4246(f), we affirm, see 8th Cir. R. 47B. See United States v. Burleson, 29 F. App'x 412, 413 (8th Cir. 2002) (per curiam) (standard of review). We also grant counsel's motion to withdraw.
