IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

HOT SPRINGS DIVISION

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA PLAINTIFF

 

v. Case No. 6:21-cr-60010

RYAN CURTIS WRIGHT DEFENDANT

ORDER

Before the Court is Defendant Ryan Curtis Wright’s (“Defendant”) Motion for Early 

Termination of Supervised Release. (ECF No. 35). The Government has not responded, and the 

Court finds the matter ripe for consideration.1

On March 24, 2023, Defendant was sentenced to twenty-one (21) months imprisonment 

and three (3) years of supervised release for the offense of Felon in Possession of a Firearm in 

violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 922(g)(1) and 924(a)(2). (ECF No. 33). On May 9, 2023, Defendant 

was released and began his three (3) years of supervised release. On August 22, 2024, 

Defendant filed the instant motion. (ECF No. 35). In support of his motion, Defendant points to 

maintaining a full-time job since being released from prison, his compliance and regular checkins, family communication, drug class completion, home visits, and lack of trouble or contact 

with the police. (ECF No. 35, at 1). Defendant also states that supervised release is causing a 

strain on his job and financials because his employers wish to send him “on the road” for work 

but he is unable to do so. Id. 

The United States Probation Office (“USPO”) confirms that, while on supervision, 

Defendant has maintained stable housing, maintained full-time employment, completed 

substance abuse treatment, and maintained negative drug test results. Further, the USPO states 

1The Government has communicated to the Court via email that it does not oppose Defendant’s motion.

that Defendant has completed eighteen (18) months of his thirty-six (36) month term of 

supervised release. The USPO recommends that the Court consider terminating supervised 

release.

A district court may terminate supervised release “if it is satisfied that such action is 

warranted by conduct of the defendant released and the interest of justice.” 18 U.S.C. § 

3583(e)(1). In making its determination, the Court must consider the factors set forth under 18 

U.S.C. § 3553(a), to the extent that they are applicable. Section 3553(a) factors include, among 

others, the nature and circumstances of the offense, the history and characteristics of the 

defendant, and the need to provide the defendant with correctional treatment in the most efficient 

manner.

Upon consideration of the above-mentioned factors, the Court finds that the instant 

motion (ECF No. 35) should be GRANTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED, this 10th day of January, 2025.
