UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MARC HOTZ, Defendant.
ORDER DENYING THE MOTION FOR JUDICIAL RECOMMENDATION
[ECF Nos. 79-81]
HON. GONZALO P. CURIEL, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
Defendant Marc Hotz filed three similar motions for judicial recommendation asking the Court to recommend to the Federal Bureau of Prisons (“BOP”) that he be placed in a residential reentry center (“RCC”). ECF Nos. 79-81. The Court does not have jurisdiction over the BOP's individualized placement decisions. Gullett v. Salas, No. 221CV05720, 2021 WL 3171967, at *2 (C.D. Cal. July 27, 2021) (collecting cases). Accordingly, the Court DENIES the motion for judicial recommendation and defers to the BOP's authority and discretion to place an inmate in a RCC to serve a portion of his sentence.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
