UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. James Ray JACKSON, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided December 15, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Daniel L. Bella, Attorney, Office of the United States Attorney, Hammond, IN, William T. Grimmer, Attorney (argued), Office of the United States Attorney, South Bend, IN, for Plaintiff-Appellee.

H. Jay Stevens, Attorney (argued), Indiana Federal Community Defenders, Inc., South Bend, IN, for Defendant-Appellant.

Before POSNER, COFFEY, and MANION, Circuit Judges.


COFFEY, Circuit Judge.

After James Jackson violated the terms of his supervised release resulting from two drunk driving arrests, the district court proceeded to revoke his release status and ordered him returned to prison. Jackson challenges the length of the prison term imposed after revocation of supervised release, arguing that the district court erred in determining that a felony DWI is a crime of violence. See U.S.S.G. § 7B1.1(a).
