In Rico v. United States, the Supreme Court will consider whether the fugitive-tolling doctrine – the legal principle that a criminal defendant should not receive credit toward his sentence for time spent as a fugitive – applies when a defendant absconds from (that is, flees from or evades) supervised release, thereby preventing the term of supervision from expiring while the defendant is on the lam.
