Koons-v-United-States-Amicus.pdf
United States Supreme Court; Case No. 17-5716
Decision below 850 F.3d 973 (8th Cir. Mar. 10, 2017)
Section 3553(e) cooperators are eligible for § 3582(c)(2) sentence reductions because such cooperators are not subject to statutorily required mandatory minimum sentences. Alternatively, § 3553(e) cooperators are eligible for § 3582(c)(2) sentence reductions under USSG § 1B1.10(c). Alternatively, § 3553(e) cooperators are eligible for § 3582(c)(2) sentence reductions because district courts necessarily consult the offense-specific guideline range at sentencing.
