United States v. Osborne
Opinion
Nolan Osborne, Louisiana prisoner number 119714, pleaded guilty in federal court to three charges of distribution of crack cocaine and one charge of conspiracy to possess crack cocaine with intent to distribute. The district court sentenced him to serve 121 months in prison and a five-year term of supervised release. Osborne was placed on supervised release, but the Probation Office filed a motion to revoke his supervised release based on, inter alia, his arrest for drug-related activity. Osborne subsequently pleaded guilty to drug charges in state court and received a seven-year sentence.
Osborne has not shown that the district court erred in denying his “writ of habeas corpus ad prosequendum” wherein he requested that the district court return him to federal custody, revoke his supervised release, and permit him to serve his state sentence concurrently with the remainder of his federal sentence.
The district court was not obligated to hold a hearing pursuant to Fed.R.CrimP. 32.1 because Osborne was not taken into federal custody in relation to his violation of the terms of his supervised release. Osborne has no right to concurrent sentences, nor is he entitled to serve his sentences in any particular facility. See Tighe v. Wall, 100 F.3d 41, 42 (5th Cir. 1996); Saulsbury v. United States, 591 F.2d 1028, 1031, 1035 (5th Cir. 1979). To the extent that Osborne is attempting to challenge his state convictions, we decline to consider this argument because it was not presented to the district court. See Leverette v. Louisville Ladder Co., 183 F.3d 339, 342 (5th Cir. 1999).
Osborne has shown no error in the district court’s judgment. Accordingly, that judgment is AFFIRMED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
