Case Note: Did the court actually read the papers?
In U.S. v. ANDRACOS MARSHALL, a/k/a Draco, 2022 WL 910664 (4th Cir. Mar. 29, 2022) (unpublished) (per curium), the Fourth Circuit held the district court erred in denying release based on defendant's (non-existent) criminal history, explaining: “Marshall argues inter alia that the district court erred in finding that his criminal history weighed against his release. However, it is undisputed that Marshall did not have a criminal history. Accordingly, it was an abuse of discretion to rely on “the seriousness of ... [Marshall's] criminal history” to deny his motion. Because this error could have affected the district court's weighing of the § 3553 factors, particularly the necessity for deterrence and protection of the public, we vacate the district court's order and remand for further consideration of Marshall's motion. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 332 (4th Cir.) (noting that reliance on erroneous factual premises is an abuse of discretion in compassionate release proceedings), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021).”)
