How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • vacating a district court’s denial of a federal prisoner’s 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition for sentencing credit under 18 U.S.C. § 3585(b)
  • reading the relevant statute to avoid a situation where the prisoner would have qualified presentence time reduced only from a state sentence, leaving a period of time in which the remaining federal sentence would have to be served alone
  • “The remaining 58 days credit would shorten the state term, but would not benefit Kayfez except that during 58 days he would be serving only one sentence instead of two concurrent ones.”
  • Doc. 4, p. 11; Doc. 12, p. 73, 85-92
