United States Ninth Circuit

Defendant's sentence, imposed after revocation of supervised release, is vacated and remanded for resentencing, where: 1) Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.1(b)(2)(E) requires a court to address a supervised releasee personally to ask if he wants to speak before the court imposes a post-revocation sentence, and 2) a district court that does not offer a supervised releasee the chance to exercise that right commits plain error.
