James Lee Winn v. United States
IFP petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 24-5430 · judgment June 26, 2025
Certiorari denied · November 10, 2025
Question presented
Whether Special Condition #11 of the imposed conditions of supervised release, requiring Mr. Winn to abstain from alcohol and stay out of bars, violates 18 U.S.C. § 3583(c) and § 3583(d), is a greater deprivation of liberty than necessary, and is overbroad, where he has not used alcohol in over 17 years and neither his original conditions of release or his later modified conditions of release included that condition?
