United States v. Frederick Jones

Opinion

MEMORANDUM *

Frederick Jones appeals the district court’s judgment revoking his supervised release. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and 18 U.S.C. § 3742(a)(1).

The district court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that Jones violated a condition of his supervised release by committing a battery in violation of Nev.Rev. Stat. § 33.018. The testimony from the victim and the probation officer, taken in the light most favorable to the government, established by a preponderance of the evidence that Jones’ conduct constituted a “willful and unlawful use of force or violence upon the person of another.” Id. § 200.481(l)(a); see also United States v. King, 608 F.3d 1122, 1129 (9th Cir. 2010). The petition for revocation provided Jones with sufficient notice of the charge against him. Fed.R.Crim.P. 32.1(b)(2).

AFFIRMED.
