AMENDED ORDER
UPON DUE CONSIDERATION of the United States Probation Office's Supplemental Presentence Report and the Joint Stipulation Regarding Retroactive Application of Revised Cocaine Base Sentencing Guidelines (Doc. # 75), filed on October 25, 2011, it is
ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED:
(1) The Court finds that Defendant is eligible and suitable for a reduction in his base offense level pursuant to Amendment 750 of the United States Sentencing Guidelines.
(2) On July 1, 2002, the Court sentenced Defendant to a period of 151 months imprisonment. On April 4, 2008, the Court reduced Defendant's sentence to a period of 127 months pursuant to Amendment 706. Due to the retroactive application of Amendment 750, which becomes effective as of November 1, 2011, the Court further reduces Defendant's sentence from a period of 127 months to a period of 120 months, or time served, whichever is greater. See USSG § 1B1.10(b)(2)(C).
(3) The Judgment in a Criminal Case (Doc. # 50) is amended to provide:
The defendant is hereby committed to the custody of the United States Bureau of Prisons to be imprisoned for a term of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY (120) MONTHS, or time served, whichever is greater.
(4) All other provisions set forth in the Judgment shall remain in full force and effect.
(5) This Order is STAYED for ten (10) calendar days, or until such time as the Bureau of Prisons completes the release preparations required by law, whichever occurs sooner. In no event, however, shall Defendant be released before November 1, 2011, the effective date of the retroactive application of Amendment 750 to the United States Sentencing Guidelines.
DONE and ORDERED in Jacksonville, Florida, this 28th day of October, 2011.
