Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit November 29, 1990, 90-8192 (United States v. Winnie R. Williams)

WISDOM, Circuit Judge:

The primary issue presented by this case is whether a United States Magistrate has jurisdiction to revoke a defendant’s supervised release. Because we hold that a magistrate does not have this jurisdiction, we REVERSE the judgment and REMAND the case to the district court to conduct a supervised release revocation hearing for defendant.

I.
