Is Section 3147 of the Criminal Code interpreted as "any other sentence of imprisonment"?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Galliano, 977 F.2d 1350 (9th Cir. 1992):

Galliano urges us to disregard the plain language of section 3147. Relying on United States v. Deneuve, 708 F.Supp. 425 (D.Me.1989), he contends we should resort to a legislative history analysis because the final phrase of section 3147, "any other sentence of imprisonment," is ambiguous.
