UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. ELIZABETH MCMAHAN
Electronic Filing
MEMORANDUM ORDER
AND NOW, this 21st day of May, 2021, upon due consideration of defendant's motion for 12 months RRC Placement per the Second Chance Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3624(c)(1), and [155] the government's opposition there to, IT IS ORDERED that [153] the motion be, and the same hereby is, granted in part and denied in part. The motion is granted to the extent defendant seeks a recommendation to the Bureau of Prisons that she be permitted to participate in and receive the benefit of any re-entry programs that are or may become available to her. The motion is denied to the extent it seeks an order compelling the Bureau to mandate the same. The Second Chance Act vests the authority to administer the Act in the Bureau and at this juncture defendant has failed to demonstrate any basis for the court's intervention into that administration as it pertains to defendant.
