Description
This habeas appeal requires us to determine whether the Bureau of Prisons ("BOP") of the United States Department of Justice has accurately computed the amount of time petitioner Anthony Ruggiano, Jr. must serve on his federal sentence. In early 1998, Ruggiano was sentenced to 112 months in federal prison by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (Roettger, J.) ("the sentencing court") after he pleaded guilty to federal charges of racketeering. At the time, Ruggiano was still serving a 2- 4-year sentence on an unrelated state (New York) conviction for gambling. This appeal turns on whether (and to what extent) the sentencing court intended Ruggianos federal sentence to run concurrently with his state sentence, as a court is permitted to in certain instances under federal law and the Sentencing Guidelines. See 18 U.S.C.S 3584; U.S.S.G. S 5G1.3.
