RE: Cause No.: 1:16-CR-00262-001
Your Honor:
On July 29, 2022, I filed a motion pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §3582(c)(1)(A) seeking a reduction in my sentence. (Dkt #160). On August 3, 2022 you ordered the government to respond to the motion withintl8days of the order, and the following day, August 4, 2022, you instructed the clerk to notify me of your order and the pertinent dates. (DKT# 161).
As of the date of this letter, I have not received a notification of your order from the clerk and according to my docket sheet the government failed to file a response within the required 18 days you ordered. I am writing to inquire if I may perceive this failure to file a response to my motion as a lack of opposition to the motion? Additionally, I would like to know if there are any other requirements I need to fulfill before you rule on my motion since I am unable to respond to the government's filing?
Thank you for your time and consideration in this and all future matters.
Sincerely, Sadin Tineo
