Does Section 3553(f)(5) of the Criminal Code provide additional punishment if a defendant decides not to disclose under section 3553 of the Civil Code?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Washman, 128 F.3d 1305 (9th Cir. 1997):
Section 3553(f)(5) does not raise constitutional concern because it does not mete out additional punishment if a defendant decides not to disclose under 3553(f)(5). Other circuits have so held. See, e.g., United States v. Arrington, 73 F.3d 144, 149 (7th Cir.1996).
