Summary

This page from a legal brief (Case 22-1426) argues points regarding the scope of plea agreements and Double Jeopardy. It analyzes the 'Abbamonte-Alessi rule' and the 'Annabi' precedent to determine if a plea agreement binding 'the Government' applies to other United States Attorney Offices (USAOs). The text argues that for charges to be distinct enough to bypass the rule, they must cover a new time period, noting that in the Annabi case, the conspiracy period was two years longer.

Quote #1
"Annabi’s “sufficiently distinct” standard qualifies what the Court referred to as the “Abbamonte-Alessi rule,” i.e., the canon of construction for determining whether a plea agreement’s ambiguous reference to “the Government” or “the United States” includes other USAOs."
