Jorge De Los Santos v. United States

IFP petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 19-50086 · judgment October 27, 2020


Certiorari denied · October 4, 2021

Question presented

For a low-level sex offender (like a mere possessor of child pornography with no prior criminal history), is a supervised-release condition prohibiting him from living in most urban and suburban areas substantively unreasonable, that is, does it fail to both reasonably relate to the goals of supervised release (deterrence, public protection, and rehabilitation) and involve no greater deprivation of liberty than is reasonably necessary to serve those goals?
