citation_a.sentence: See Bond v. United States, 564 U.S. 211, 217, 131 S.Ct. 2355, 180 L.Ed.2d 269 (2011) (reversing the Third Circuit’s holding that a criminal defendant lacked standing to raise a Tenth Amendment challenge to a federal statute because any rights under the Tenth Amendment accrued not to the defendant but to the states, and holding that the defendant-appellant’s “challenge to her conviction and sentence ‘satisfies the case- or-controversy requirement, because the incarceration .., constitutes a concrete injury, caused by the conviction and redress-able by invalidation of the conviction.’” (quoting Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 7, 118 S.Ct. 978, 140 L.Ed.2d 43 (1998))). And it is equally patent that the court possessed statutory jurisdiction under 18 U.S.C. § 3231. See, e.g., United States v. Collins, 920 F.2d 619, 629 (10th Cir. 1990) (noting that purported defense counsel’s “memorandum blithely ignored 18 U.S.C. § 3231 which explicitly vests federal district courts with jurisdiction over ‘all offenses against the laws of the United States’ ”); United States v. Tony, 637 F.3d 1153, 1158 (10th Cir. 2011) (“The district court had jurisdiction. 18 U.S.C. § 3231.”); cf. United States v. DeVaughn, 694 F.3d 1141, 1146, 1153 (10th Cir. 2012) (rejecting the view that “a charging document’s failure to state an offense affects a federal court’s jurisdiction,” and noting that “[a] claim that a criminal statute is unconstitutional [as applied to the defendant] does not implicate a court’s subject matter jurisdiction”).
