Jimmy Lee Penix v. United States Parole Commission

In this case, Petitioner-Appellant Jimmy Lee Penix appeals the district court’s denial of injunctive relief against Respondent-Ap-pellee United States Parole Commission. Penix sought to enjoin the Commission from executing a parole violator warrant issued against him. The district court rejected Penix’s assertion that, as the Commission failed to hold a hearing within five years following the commencement of his parole term, that term automatically expired — as did the Commission’s jurisdiction over him. Finding no reversible error, we affirm.
