I. INTRODUCTION
This matter is before the Court on Defendant's Objections to Sentencing Opinion and Upward Variance (Docket #14). On September 18, 2007, the Court held a sentencing hearing. After taking into consideration (1) the Government's sentencing memorandum, (2) the statements of the Defendant, defense counsel (including his request for a variance) and government counsel, and (3) the information contained in the Presentence Investigation Report ("PSR") for the Defendant, the Court sentenced Defendant to 96 months imprisonment. In addition, the Court instructed the parties that the Court would issue a written sentencing opinion setting forth the Court's reasons for imposing the 96 month sentence. The Court further instructed the parties that they could file objections to the sentence imposed if they desired, provided that they filed their written objections within five days of the date the Court issued its written Opinion. On September 18, 2007, the Court issued its written Opinion regarding Defendant's sentence. Defendant then timely filed the instant Objections. The Court has reviewed and considered Defendant's objections but adheres to the sentence of 96 months imposed on September 18, 2007.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
