Listen to this article7th Circuit Court of Appeals
Case Name: United States of America v. Francisco Fuentes
Case No.: 16-3504
Officials: BAUER, POSNER, and SYKES, Circuit Judges.
Focus: Sentencing
On January 28, 2016, Francisco Fuentes was charged with one count of illegal reentry by a deported alien in violation of 8 U.S.C. §§ 1326(a) and (b)(2). He pleaded guilty on June 7, 2016, pursuant to a written plea agreement. On September 7, 2016, he was sentenced to 24 months’ imprisonment. Fuentes appeals his sentence, arguing that the district court erred in its Sentencing Guidelines calculation. We find that Fuentes waived any such argument, and therefore, we affirm the sentence.
