appeal.

In cases that don't involve a violent crime and with a sentence that is shorter than the time it would take for an appeal to be decided, it is pretty common to delay incarceration until after the appeal is resolved.

Bannon was sentenced to four months for a non-violent crime. Pretty standard practice to delay incarceration.
