BREYER, Chief Judge.

Arnold Ellis, the appellant, is serving a 12-year prison term as a result of his 1983 conviction for drug offenses. As part of his sentence, the court ordered him to pay a "stand committed" fine of $60,000. Such a fine requires him to remain in prison (i.e., "stand committed") until he pays it. See 28 C.F.R. § 2.7(a); Santiago v. U.S., 889 F.2d 371, 373 (1st Cir.1989).
