7th Circuit Court of Appeals
United States of America v. Christopher Truett
22-1349
Criminal. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division. Judge James Hanlon. Affirms the district court’s decision to not hold a competency hearing for Christopher Truett and the court’s sentencing guidelines calculation for Truett’s drug conspiracy conviction. Finds that because the condition of Truett’s supervised release included only in the written judgment is a mandatory condition, the court declines to vacate that condition. Also finds that the district court did not abuse its discretion in not ordering a competency hearing sua sponte at the change-of-plea hearing.
