A federal judge this week denied former Subway spokesperson Jared Fogle's constitutional challenge to his more than 15-year sentence for child pornography and sex crimes.
Fogle, who is representing himself, filed a motion in February asking to withdraw his guilty plea and receive an amended sentence. In the filing, he says he was allowed to plead guilty to a "conspiracy" charge, which he claims doesn't exist under the law.
Judge Tanya Walton Pratt responded to the February filing by giving him until April 6 to supplement his original motion with a complete statement of the claims and the grounds on which he could challenge his conviction. Fogle also had the option to withdraw or amend the motion.
Instead, he filed a constitutional challenge, saying the time limitation outlined in a federal law that allows him to seek relief is unconstitutional.
But, Pratt rejected that claim in her order this week.
