Court of Appeals for the First Circuit December 2, 2002, 01-2113 (United States v. William Cortes-Claudio)

LEVIN H. CAMPBELL, Senior Circuit Judge.

This appeal raises,

inter alia,

the question of which statutory provision governs the district court’s imposition of a term of supervised release upon a drug offender. A statute pertaining to federal crimes in general provides that for Class A and Class B felonies, the

maximum

supervised release term is five years. 18 U.S.C. § 3588(b)(2000).
