ORDER
Martin Reidinger, Chief United States District Judge
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Defendant's “Motion to Modify Sentence” [Doc. 137].
The Defendant moves for a reduction of his sentence pursuant to Part A of Amendment 821 to the United States Sentencing Guidelines. [Doc. 137].
Part A of Amendment 821, effective November 1, 2023, amended U.S.S.G. § 4A1.1 to change the way that criminal history “status points” are assessed for defendants who committed their offense of conviction while under a criminal justice sentence. Here, the Defendant had a total of eighteen (18) criminal history points based on his prior criminal convictions. [Doc. 138 at ¶ 70]. The Defendant was not assessed any status points under § U.S.S.G. § 4A1.1. As such, the Defendant is not eligible for relief under Amendment 821.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the Defendant's “Motion to Modify Sentence” [Doc. 137] is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
