United States First Circuit

Defendant's conviction for his failure to register as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA) is affirmed, where SORNA's registration requirement applied to defendant as a person who "was convicted" of a sex offense, regardless of whether that conviction is later vacated, when federal charges have been brought for conduct before the vacation of conviction.
