However, the only information that must be provided to the defendant with respect to his prior criminal record is that which shows which offense the defendant was convicted of. The federal government is not required to provide any other information with respect to the conviction.

WAIVER OF APPEAL

CONSPIRACY

A person commits the offense of conspiracy if he or she, with the intent to commit an underlying felony, agrees with one or more persons to engage in conduct that would constitute the underlying felony and performs an overt act in furtherance of the agreement. The person must know that the underlying felony will be committed. The person must also agree in advance to aid the commission of the underlying felony. The overt act does not need to be a criminal act in itself.
