Thomas Stabile v. U.S. Bureau of Prisons

Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit

Decided December 4, 1987No. 215, Docket 86-2405PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Per curiam

Thomas Stabile appeals pro se from a judgment of the District Court for the District of Connecticut (Warren W. Eginton, Judge) dismissing his petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1982). Stabile, now serving a federal sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution at Danbury, Connecticut, claims that he has been confined beyond the maximum term permitted by law. His claim rests on an erroneous interpretation of the provision governing the status of federal prisoners released after serving their maximum sentences less good-time credits. 18 U.S.C. § 4164 (1982).
