How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that commission of a sex crime is “generally” enough to “require an initial mental health assessment and treatment consistent with that assessment”
  • explaining that “§ 3583(d)(3) mandates only that the conditions not directly conflict with the policy statements”
  • interpreting a condition not to delegate authority to impose invasive medical and psychiatric treatments because such a condition would implicate liberty interests
  • stating that inpatient treatment affects a significant liberty interest
  • vacating conditions limiting Bear’s ability to reside with his children because, despite his prior sex offenses, the record did not show “a danger to his own three children”
  • interpreting ambiguous supervised-release condition so as to not impose invasive medical and psychiatric treatments
