UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. ROY TATUM (1)
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION ON REVOCATION OF SUPERVISED RELEASE
JEREMY D. KERNODLE UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
The Court referred a petition alleging violations of supervised release conditions to United States Magistrate Judge K. Nicole Mitchell at Tyler, Texas, for consideration pursuant to applicable laws and orders of this Court. The Court has received and considered the Report of the United States Magistrate Judge filed pursuant to such order, along with the record, pleadings, and all available evidence.
At the close of the July 12, 2024 revocation hearing, Defendant and defense counsel signed a standard form waiving the right to object to the proposed findings and recommendations contained in the United States Magistrate Judge's Report, consenting to revocation of supervised release and consenting to the imposition of the sentence recommended in the Report. Counsel for the government orally waived the right to object to the Report. Defendant also waived the right to be present and speak before the District Judge imposes the recommended sentence. Therefore, the Court may act on the Report and Recommendation immediately.
Accordingly, the findings of fact and conclusions of law of the Magistrate Judge are correct and the Report of the Magistrate Judge is ADOPTED. It is therefore
ORDERED that Defendant's plea of true to Allegations 2, 3 and 4 in the petition is ACCEPTED. Based upon Defendant's plea of true to Allegations 2, 3 and 4 in the petition, the Court finds that Defendant violated the conditions of supervised release. It is further
ORDERED that Roy Tatum's supervised release is REVOKED. Judgment and commitment will be entered separately, in accordance with the Magistrate Judge's recommendations. It is finally
ORDERED that Defendant be committed to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons for a term of imprisonment of 10 months with no further supervised release.
So ORDERED and SIGNED.
