Sentence Reduction in a Federal Case

We recently obtained a significant sentence reduction for a federal client of ours.

The federal sentencing guidelines (which mostly control the type of sentences a defendant should receive) called for a sentence of approximately 37 months in federal prison.

However, after we made various arguments to the Court, the Court imposed only an 18-month sentence.

The client was also permitted to “self-report” to the designated federal institution in early February of 2025.

In reality, a good portion of this sentence will be served in what is called a halfway house. Client was of course very pleased.
