UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. FERNANDO MARTINEZ, Defendant.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
The defendant has submitted a letter that has been filed and construed as a motion for relief under the First Step Act. The defendant is not entitled to relief for several reasons. Among those reasons are these: (1) the defendant was convicted of a crime involving methamphetamine and the First Step Act does not apply; (2) he entered into a Rule 11(c)(1)(C) plea agreement that set his prison sentence at 180 months by agreement of the government and the defendant. Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED that:
(1) The letter (filing no. 96), construed as a motion for relief under the First Step Act, is denied.
(2) The Clerk shall mail a copy of this Memorandum and Order to the defendant at his last known address.
DATED this 20th day of August, 2019.
BY THE COURT:
s/ Richard G. Kopf
Senior United States District Judge
