U.S. v. Taylor

Dist. Ct. did not err in denying defendant's motion under 18 USC section 3582(c)(2) for reduction of his crack cocaine drug conspiracy sentence based upon 2008 Amendment to sentencing guidelines that lowered offense levels for crack cocaine offenses. While defendant was entitled to seek reduction in sentence, any application would not result in any change of sentence since defendant also qualified as career offender, which, at level 37, had same sentencing range of 360 months to life as his 38 offense level to which he had originally been sentenced.
