Setser v. United States

Big news! My good friend Jason Hawkins of the Federal Defenders of the Northern District of Texas is going to the "big show" to argue for his client before the SCOTUS. Today, the Supremes granted Jason's writ of certiorari in Setser v. United States, No. 10-7387. In that case, the Court will decide whether a district court has the authority to order a federal sentence to run consecutive to an anticipated, but not-yet-imposed, state sentence. Congratulations Jason!
