U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit

United States v. Danny Roney

August 17, 2026

Summary

The court held that 18 U.S.C. § 4243 permits revocation of a conditional discharge only when the acquittee fails to comply with a prescribed regimen of medical, psychiatric, or psychological care or treatment, not merely an ancillary release condition. It nevertheless affirmed the revocation because Roney’s no-weapons condition was an integral, treatment-related component of his prescribed regimen and he violated it by possessing a firearm during a robbery.
