STIPULATED MOTION AND ORDER TO REDUCE SENTENCE PURSUANT TO 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) RETROACTIVE DRUGS-MINUS-TWO REDUCTION CASE
ANTHONY W. ISHII, District Judge.
Defendant, ALFONSO RINCON-QUEVEDO, by and through his attorney, Assistant Federal Defender David M. Porter, and plaintiff, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, by and through its counsel, Assistant U.S. Attorney Kathleen A. Servatius, hereby stipulate as follows:
1. Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2), this Court may reduce the term of imprisonment in the case of a defendant who has been sentenced to a term of imprisonment based on a sentencing range that has subsequently been lowered by the Sentencing Commission pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 994(o);
2. On August 29, 2011 this Court sentenced Mr. Rincon-Quevedo to a term of 108 months imprisonment;
3. His total offense level was 33, his criminal history category was III, and the resulting guideline range was 168 to 210 months. He received a reduction from the low end of the applicable guideline range on the government's motion; Stipulation and Order Re: Sentence Reduction 1
4. The sentencing range applicable to Mr. Rincon-Quevedo was subsequently lowered by the United States Sentencing Commission in Amendment 782, made retroactive on July 18, 2014, see 79 Fed. Reg. 44, 973;
5. Mr. Rincon-Quevedo's total offense level has been reduced from 33 to 31, and his amended guideline range is 135 to 168 months. A reduction comparable to the one received at the initial sentencing produces a term of 86 months;

ORDER
This matter came before the Court on the stipulated motion of the defendant for reduction of sentence pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2).
The parties agree, and the Court finds, that Mr. Rincon-Quevedo is entitled to the benefit Amendment 782, which reduces the total offense level from 33 to 31, resulting in an amended guideline range of 135 to 168 months. A reduction comparable to the one received at the initial sentencing produces a term of 86 months.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the term of imprisonment imposed in August 2011 is reduced to a term of 86 months, effective as of November 1, 2015.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all other terms and provisions of the original judgment remain in effect. The clerk shall forthwith prepare an amended judgment reflecting the above reduction in sentence, and shall serve certified copies of the amended judgment on the United States Bureau of Prisons and the United States Probation Office.
Unless otherwise ordered, Mr. Rincon-Quevedo shall report to the United States Probation Office within seventy-two hours after his release.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
