Opinion

Case No. 4:14-cr-00122-BLW

09-01-2020

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. JESUS ROJO-VALENZUELA, Defendant.


MEMORANDUM DECISION & ORDER

Before the Court is Defendant Jesus Rojo-Valenzuela's Motion for Sentence Relief (Dkt. 63). Rojo-Valenzuela bases his motion on the "Federal Prison Bureau Nonviolent Offender Relief Act of 2003." See id. The government correctly points out that this particular bill has never been enacted into law. Otherwise, 18 U.S.C. 3624, which defendant relies upon, simply outlines the terms of custody and release guidelines for the Director of the Bureau of Prisons. It does not give the Court authority to grant relief here. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that Defendant's Motion for Relief from Sentence (Dkt. 63) is DENIED.

DATED: September 1, 2020
