U.S. v. GRANT

No. 16-4258.

862 F.3d 417 (2017)

UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Briceton GRANT, Defendant-Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Decided: July 6, 2017.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

ARGUED: Nicholas John Xenakis , OFFICE OF THE FEDERAL PUBLIC DEFENDER, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellant. Christopher John Catizone , OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee. ON BRIEF: Geremy C. Kamens , Federal Public Defender, OFFICE OF THE FEDERAL PUBLIC DEFENDER, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellant. Dana J. Boente , United States Attorney, Angelissa D. Savino , Special Assistant United States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Affirmed by published opinion. Judge Motz wrote the opinion, in which Judge Shedd and Judge Duncan joined.

After the Government prematurely released Briceton Grant from prison, Grant sought credit for the time he erroneously spent at liberty. Assuming federal common law offers such relief, the district court did not improperly deny him this credit. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
