Opinion
Criminal No. 02-39.
October 28, 2011
ORDER
The defendant's motion for a reduction of sentence pursuant to the 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) is hereby DENIED. This Court is bound by the Third Circuit's opinion in United States v. Mateo, 560 F.3d 152 (3d Cir. 2009), which is directly on point and requires the Court to deny the motion. The defendant has preserved his argument for a reduction in sentence should the Third Circuit overrule Mateo.
