U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 17-2258
U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids
[PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Stras, Circuit
Judge]
Criminal case - Sentencing. The sentence imposed upon the revocation of
defendant's supervised release was not substantively unreasonable or an
abuse of the court's discretion; the court's decision to impose a
no-contact order condition prohibiting defendant from contacting his wife
during his prison term and period of supervised release was the result of
an individualized inquiry into the facts, was reasonably related to the
sentencing factors and necessary to protect the woman, and did not involve
a greater deprivation of liberty than was reasonably necessary.
