Career Offender
According to the United States Sentencing Guidelines, a career offender is someone who commits a crime of violence or a controlled substance offense after two prior felony convictions for those crimes.
Federal Appeals
An appeal is the legal process through which a criminal conviction and sentence is reviewed by a higher court, and the court of appeals is the only court which can correct errors in a defendant’s trial or sentencing.
Post Conviction Matters
You may need to hire an experienced, knowledgeable attorney to ensure the sentence imposed by the court is the sentence you actually serve, and to make sure you do not spend any longer in prison than you have to.
