See Violation of Supervised Release Report, May 12, 2015, at 8 (charge two); Hr'g Tr., Apr. 27, 2016 ("Hr'g Tr.").
The applicable sentencing range pursuant to the sentencing guidelines is three to nine months of incarceration. See Hr'g Tr. Ordered is a sentence of time served of approximately two months, and discharge from supervised release.
