United States of America v. Jack Wallin Mattson


HONORABLE TIMOTHY M. BURGESS, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

PROCEEDINGS: ORDER FROM CHAMBERS

This matter comes before the Court on Defendant Jack Wallin Mattson's Motion for Early Termination of Supervised Release (the “Motion”).Neither United States Probation and Pretrial Services (“USPO”) nor Plaintiff United States of America (the “Government”) opposes the Motion.The matter is ripe for resolution.

Dkt. 76 (Motion).

Dkt. 77 (Response); Dkt. 79 (USPO Memo).

Mattson moves for early termination of supervision based on his compliance with the conditions of his supervised release, excluding a brief relapse at the start of his term of supervision.Mattson credits USPO for supporting him after this relapse and states that he is now highly motivated to maintain sobriety and to “keep his life stable and productive.” Mattson states that the conditions of his supervision are hindering his ability to travel, see his family, and “liv[e] his best life.”For these reasons, Mattson argues that early termination is warranted.

USPO does not oppose the Motion, noting that Mattson has made “significant progress and abided by all conditions” of his supervised release. USPO highlights Mattson's completion of a substance abuse program and his use of the skills gained through that program to “identify triggers and remain sober.”The Government similarly does not oppose the Motion.

18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(1) allows a court-after consideration of the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. §§ 3553(a)(1), (a)(2)(B), (a)(2)(C), (a)(2)(D), (a)(4), (a)(5), (a)(6), and (a)(7)-to “terminate a term of supervised release and discharge the defendant released at any time after the expiration of one year of supervised released . . . if it is satisfied that such action is warranted by the conduct of the defendant released and the interest of justice.”

Having reviewed the briefing in this matter, and considering the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a), the Court agrees with the parties and concludes that early termination of Mattson's supervised release is warranted at this time.

Accordingly, the Court GRANTS the Motion at Docket 76. FURTHER, it is hereby ORDERED that Mattson's term of supervised release is terminated effective the date of this Order.
