Opinion
Finding the Government breached its plea agreement with the defendant, we VACATE his conviction and sentence and REMAND this case for reassignment to a different judge. 1 Because defense counsel represents that the defendant may be released as early as next month, we direct the district court to resolve this case expeditiously.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
. We remand for proceedings before a different judge not because of any "impartiality of the ... judge who heard this case,” but because our precedent commands this result. United States v. Self, 596 F.3d 245, 250 (5th Cir. 2010) (citation omitted).
