Opinion

Case No. 05-80638.

November 16, 2007

OPINION AND ORDER

LAWRENCE ZATKOFF, District Judge

I. INTRODUCTION

This matter is before the Court on Defendant's duplicate Motions to Amend Judgment of Conviction or Clarify Record (Docket Nos. 53 and 54). Defendant asks the Court to enter an order to amend the Judgment to reflect that Defendant's conviction "does not, nor has ever reflected `Felon in Possession of a Firearm' pursuant to Title Code 18 U.S.C. 3582(a), 3621 et seq and 3662(A)."

II. OPINION

Defendant's Motions are frivolous. The first issue the Jury addressed in deciding this case was whether Defendant was guilty of "Felon in Possession of a Firearm." The Jury unanimously found Defendant guilty of Felon in Possession of a Firearm. Accordingly, the Court concludes that, despite Defendant's hope, one of Defendant's convictions clearly and expressly was for "Felon in Possession of a Firearm." Defendant's Motions are therefore DENIED.

III. CONCLUSION

Accordingly, and as set forth above, it is HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant's Motions to Amend Judgment of Conviction or Clarify Record are DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
