United States First Circuit


US v. Romero , 17-1702

Vacated a sentence of unlawful re-entry into the U.S. because the presentence report contained an error. On appeal of his sentence, the defendant pointed out for the first time that the presentence report had erroneously applied an enhancement that rated his offense in a U.S. Sentencing Guidelines advisory range of 46-57 months instead of 30-37 months. The First Circuit agreed that this was plain error and vacated and remanded for resentencing.
