United States v. Valdez-Jaimes
Docket: No. 10-50429
Court: Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit; February 14, 2011; Federal Appellate Court
Jose Luis Valdez-Jaimes appeals a judgment in a criminal case, acknowledging that his arguments are precluded by the precedent set in United States v. Brown, which established that a district court can order a term of imprisonment to run consecutively to an unimposed state sentence. The court grants the Government’s motion for summary affirmance, thereby upholding the district court's judgment. The opinion is designated as non-publishable and does not serve as precedent except under specific circumstances outlined in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
