Matched Legal Cases: ['§ 3582', '§ 1', '§ 1', '§ 1', '§ 3553', '§ 3582', '§ 1', '§ 1', '§ 3582', '§ 1']

GILBERTO ALATORRE, Defendant.
This matter comes before the court on the defendant's motion to reduce sentence (docket no. 244). The defendant filed such motion on March 16, 2015.[1]
Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) and USSG § 1B1.10, the court concludes that a sentence reduction is justified. See United States v. Curry, 584 F.3d 1102, 1104 (8th Cir. 2009) (discussing United States v. Wyatt, 115 F.3d 606, 608-09 (8th Cir. 1997)) (explaining requirements under USSG § 1B1.10(b)). Having reviewed the defendant's file, the provisions and commentary of USSG § 1B1.10, the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), the nature and seriousness of the danger to any person or community that may be posed by a reduction in the defendant's term of imprisonment and the defendant's post-sentencing conduct, the court deems it appropriate to exercise its discretion and grant the defendant the maximum reduction permitted under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) and USSG § 1B1.10.[2] The defendant's previously imposed terms of imprisonment, that is, 262 months imprisonment on count 1 and 240 months imprisonment on count 5, as reflected in the judgment dated March 13, 1999, is reduced to 168 months imprisonment. In the event that, as of November 2, 2015, the defendant already served 168 months imprisonment on count 1 and count 5, the defendant's sentence on count 1 and count 5 is reduced to time served as of November 2, 2015. See USSG § 1B1.10(b)(2)(C) (prohibiting a term of imprisonment that is "less than the term of imprisonment the defendant has already served"); see also id., comment. (n.3) (stating that the term of imprisonment may not be reduced below time served). The defendant's new sentence of 168 months imprisonment applies to count 1 and count 5 of the indictment. Except as provided above, all provisions of the judgment dated March 13, 1999 remain in effect. The duration and conditions of the defendant's supervised release remain unchanged. This order will take effect on November 2, 2015.
Because a reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) and USSG § 1B1.10 is appropriate, the defendant's motion to reduce sentence (docket no. 244) is granted. The clerk's office is directed to send and fax or email a copy of this order to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, that is, the place where the defendant, USM No. 01858-029, is currently incarcerated. The clerk's office is also directed to send a copy of this order to the defendant, the office ...
