A special condition of supervised release that a man could get no more tattoos for three years, after being convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm, exceeded the authority of the federal judge.
United States v. Campos, 2016 BL 86842., No. 15-1346, 3/22/16
The court rejected the government's "excessive cost" argument, saying that preventing the man from paying for "this one particular expenditure" would not advance his educational, vocational, medicinal or other correctional needs and bears no connection to any of the other sentencing factors set out in 18 U.S.S. §3553(a).
