Description
Petitioner, Ronald J. Hackett, appeals from the denial of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Petitioner filed his pro se petition seeking to challenge the presumptive parole date imposed by the United States Parole Commission. Petitioner contends that the Commission improperly set the release date outside the range established under the recommended parole guidelines and that the Commission erred by relying on evidence which was not produced at trial and was specifically rejected by the sentencing judge. In addition, petitioner argues that he is entitled to immediate release under the provisions of the recently enacted Sentencing Reform Act of 1984 (Title II of the Comprehensive Crime Control Act of 1984). For the following reasons, the judgment of the district court denying the writ of habeas corpus is affirmed.
