U.S. Bank National Association, As v. Mary Sue Spencer

How courts have described this case

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

• holding that the application of § 2252A to the intrastate possession of child pornography does not exceed Congress’s Commerce Clause authority
• involving the question whether a court-imposed ban on internet use as a condition of supervised release fits the broad statutory goals enumerated in § 3583
• affirming sentence where defendant did not contemporaneously object to district court’s “fail[ure] to substantiate the conditions of release” and did not advance any “viable basis for ascribing plain error to” sentencing judge
• rejecting a belated challenge to supervised release conditions “because there is no showing here that the judge would have imposed less onerous conditions even if [defendant] had been afforded ‘advance’ notice”
• reviewing for plain error where defendant and his lawyer “sat in court while the judge pronounced the sentence, but they never voiced an objection on the ground that the District Court had failed to substantiate the conditions of release”
• “every time one user downloads an image, he simultaneously produces a duplicate version of that image”
