No. 3:08 CR 159.United States District Court, W.D. Wisconsin.
October 18, 2011
ORDER
JAMES MOODY, District Judge
Defendant Andrew Sonnenberg has filed a motion seeking a sentence reduction, presumably pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) in connection with Amendment 750 to the United States Sentencing Guidelines. Although the United States Sentencing Commission has acted so that the amendment will be retroactively applicable and potentially impact sentences for offenses involving crack cocaine, the effective date is November 1, 2011; and then only if the United States Congress takes no contrary action.
For this reason, defendant Sonnenberg’s motion is premature. Rather than denying the motion, the court will keep the motion and the attachments thereto under advisement until November 1, 2011. The court will address the motion promptly thereafter.
SO ORDERED.
