US v. Plant
Feb 02, 2016OUTCOME: Relief on appeal
United States v. Plant was a difficult appeal, for a lot of reasons. Ultimately we were able to get some relief at the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces. The court set-aside a conviction of child ... endangerment and ordered a sentence reassessment. Faced with the issue back in the Air Force Court of Criminal Appeals we argued that the case should be returned to the field for a rehearing on the sentence. However, we argued the alternative remedy of disapproving one year of confinement. We did that because that was the maximum potential punishment for the child endangerment charge. Today we received the news that the AFCCA agreed with us on setting aside one year of confinement. This means Plant will be released 16 months earlier than expected.
