U.S. v. Woodson

1 Citing case

  1. Vaught v. U.S.

    Civil Action No.: 4:10-cv-70262-RBH, Criminal No.: 4:08-cr-00375-RBH (D.S.C. Dec. 10, 2010)

    The Petitioner was facing a twenty (20) year statutory maximum sentence as to Count Five and a statutory minimum of 5 years to life consecutive to any other sentence as to Count Six. Thus, the Petitioner's eleven (11) year stipulated sentence is clearly within the statutory maximums provided in the statutes of conviction. Consequently, his appeal of this sentence is within the scope of his appeal waiver. See, e.g., United States v. Woodson, 369 Fed. Appx. 517, 518-19 (4th Cir. 2010) (finding that defendant validly waived his right to appeal his classification as a career offender where the plea waiver stated that he waived his right to appeal "the conviction and any sentence within the statutory maximum").
