United States v. Hernandez-Ferrer

How courts have described this case

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

• confronting a situation where the court issued no warrant or summons before the expiration of a supervised- release term
• applying the \expressio unius est exclusio alterius\ canon of statutory construction, \which translates roughly as 'the expression of one thing is the exclusion of other things'\ (emphasis omitted)
• “[T]he statutory pro- visions touching upon supervised release neither expressly require nor expressly permit tolling during the interval when an offender is in fugitive status.”
• “The government is correct that imprisonment lasting for at least thirty days, in connection with a different offense, tolls the running of a supervised re- lease term.”
• “If an offender absconds before the expiration of his supervised release term, he will not do so with impunity.... [A] judicially contrived tolling mechanism is not necessary to deter offenders from absconding”
• “By its plain language, section 3583(i) extends the district court’s jurisdiction beyond the stated expiration of a term of supervised release. But that extension operates only in a particular set of circumstances . . . .”
