UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. TONY DAY, a/k/a "50 Cent," a/k/a "50," Defendant.
ORDER GRANTING MOTION
FOR RECONSIDERATION
Defendant, Tony Day, moves the court to reconsider its April 13, 2012, order denying defendant sentencing relief. The court relied on United States v. Sidney, 648 F.3d 904 (8th Cir. 2011), when it previously denied relief to Day. Sidney has now been abrogated by the United States Supreme Court's ruling in Dorsey v. United States, 132 S. Ct. 2321 (June 21, 2012). As a result, the government does not object to Day's motion for reconsideration and waives any procedural defenses it may have. As a result, it is
ORDERED that Day's motion for reconsideration (Docket 412) is granted. Day's motion for a further reduction of sentence is granted. The U.S. Probation Office is directed to prepare a Second Amended judgment setting forth a sentence of time served followed by three years of supervised release.
BY THE COURT:
