Is there any reason to disturb the sentence imposed by a District Judge on a defendant who was convicted of assault while on probation?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Armedo-Sarmiento, 545 F.2d 785 (2nd Cir. 1977):
Although there were some inaccuracies in the probation report, these were corrected on the record prior to the imposition of sentence; and the District Judge stated that he would disregard them. There is no indication that he did not do so. We see no reason to disturb the sentence he imposed. See United States v. Herndon, 525 F.2d 208, 210 (2d Cir. 1975).
