UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MARTIN ARRENDONDO-VALENZUELA, Defendant.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
KATHRYN H. VRATIL, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On November 12, 2009, the Court sentenced defendant to 360 months in prison. On May 5, 2023, the Court reduced the sentence of co-defendant Juan Mata-Soto from life to 240 months. On May 5, 2023, the Court ordered the government to show good cause in writing why the Court, sua sponte under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), should not reduce defendant's sentence. This matter is before the Court on defendant's Unopposed Motion to Reduce Sentence Under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i) (Doc. #560) filed May 31, 2023, which proposes an agreed reduced sentence of 202 months. For substantially the reasons stated in defendant's Unopposed Motion to Reduce Sentence Under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i) (Doc. #560), the Court sustains defendant's motion. Under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), the Court reduces defendant's sentence of 360 months in prison to 202 months.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that defendant's Unopposed Motion to Reduce Sentence Under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(D(A)(i) (Doc. #560) filed May 31, 2023 is SUSTAINED. The Court reduces defendant's sentence of 360 months in prison to 202 months. Except as modified above, all other terms and conditions of the Judgment In A Criminal Case (Doc. #207) filed November 13, 2009 shall remain in effect.
