CRIMINAL ACTION NO. 14-22-DLB-EBA
03-02-2016
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA PLAINTIFF v. WILLIAM E. LYND DEFENDANT
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
************
This matter is before the Court upon the Report and Recommendation ("R&R") of United States Magistrate Judge Edward B. Atkins, wherein he recommends that the Court revoke Defendant William Lynd's supervised release and impose a sentence of six (6) months incarceration, with no term of supervised release to follow. (Doc. # 10). At the final revocation hearing conducted on February 18, 2016, Defendant stipulated to violations of two terms of his Supervised Release Conditions and one term of his Special Conditions of Supervision, as set forth Probation Officer Alison Biggs's Violation Report. (Doc. # 2).
Defendant having executed a waiver of his right to allocution (Doc. # 7), and indicating through counsel that he has no objection to the R&R (Doc. #11), the matter is ripe for review. The R&R being sound in all respects, including the recommended sentence and the basis for said recommendation, and the Court being otherwise sufficiently advised,
IT IS ORDERED as follows:
(1) The Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation (Doc. # 10) is hereby ADOPTED as the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the Court;
(2) Defendant is found to have VIOLATED the terms of his supervised release;
(3) Defendant's supervised release is hereby REVOKED;
(4) Defendant is hereby SENTENCED to the custody of the Attorney General for a term of six (6) months, with no term of supervised release to follow;
(5) A separate Judgment shall be entered contemporaneously forthwith; and
This 2nd day of March, 2016.
