Nolan Gets One-Week Reprieve From Prison
Former Assemblyman Pat Nolan (R-Glendale) has an extra week of freedom before reporting to prison for his 33-month sentence on political corruption charges, thanks to a paperwork delay at the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
U.S. attorney’s office spokeswoman Linda Wodarski said that federal prison officials failed to complete Nolan’s probation report in time for him to begin serving his sentence Monday, the date ordered by U.S. District Judge Edward J. Garcia in Sacramento. “I don’t think it’s anything for the U.S. attorney’s office to be alarmed about,” Wodarski said.
Nolan, 43, pleaded guilty in February to one count of racketeering after a six-year legal battle with federal authorities investigating influence-peddling in the capital.
