Skilling must now report to the low security level federal prison at Waseca, MN to begin serving his 24 year sentence. Ouch. But the Judge gave Skilling a glimmer of hope for his appeal:

Enron's Jeff Skilling caught a last minute break from the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals Monday. He won't have to report to his designated prison at Waseca, MN today.
Skilling has a motion for bail pending appeal under consideration and the Court ruled he can stay out until it is decided.
Skilling has been sentenced to 24 years.
