United States v. Robert Bolden

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
United States v. Robert Bolden, 372 F. App'x 680 (8th Cir. 2010)

United States v. Robert Bolden

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Robert Bolden challenges the reasonableness of the sentence the district court 1 imposed after revoking his supervised release. Upon careful review, we hold that the district court did not clearly err in finding by a preponderance of the evidence that Bolden had violated the conditions of his supervised release, see United States v. Carothers, 337 F.3d 1017, 1019 (8th Cir. 2003) (government must prove by preponderance of evidence that defendant violated supervised release condition; district court’s finding that violation occurred is reviewed for clear error; district court’s credibility determinations at supervised release revocation hearing are virtually unre-viewable on appeal), and we conclude that the revocation sentence is not unreasonable, see United States v. Tyson, 413 F.3d 824, 825 (8th Cir. 2005) (per curiam) (revocation sentences are reviewed for unreasonableness in accordance with United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005)).

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, subject to counsel informing Bolden about procedures for seeking rehearing or filing a petition for certiorari.
