The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled unanimously against a man convicted of armed robbery who had argued that the district court could not seize his assets because the court missed a filing deadline.

In 2014, then-32-year-old Louis McIntosh from the Bronx borough of New York City was sentenced to 60 years in prison after being convicted of nine counts, among them conspiracy to commit armed robberies from 2009 to 2012.
