Sentencing – supervised release — conditions

Although the court did not state any reasons for the conditions of extended supervision it imposed, the conditions remain in place where neither the defendant nor his attorney objected.

“All this said, because the attorney did not raise these issues and the defendant did not respond to the Anders brief we have no basis for reversing the sentence, as we are given no indication that he wishes to challenge any of the conditions of supervised release. United States v. Bey, 748 F.3d 774, 776 (7th Cir. 2014). He may be indifferent to them, since—apart from those that, on unexplained authority, are to take effect before his release—they won’t take effect until his re-lease date, which according to the Bureau of Prisons will be no earlier than June 4, 2023. (The selection of this date was based on the assumption that he will earn the maximum good-time credits authorized by 18 U.S.C. § 3624(b)(1).) He may not weight distant future consequences heavily.”

Dismissed.
