A Louisiana Order Regarding Motion for Sentence Reduction Pursuant to 18 USC Sec 3582(C)(2) is a judicial order issued by a court in the state of Louisiana that allows a person convicted of a federal crime to have their sentence reduced. The order must be based on the new sentencing guidelines established by the United States Sentencing Commission. This order grants a defendant a reduction in their sentence by up to two-thirds of the original term or the maximum sentence prescribed by the law, whichever is less. The order also requires the defendant to successfully complete any special conditions imposed by the court. There are two types of Louisiana Order Regarding Motion for Sentence Reduction Pursuant to 18 USC Sec 3582(C)(2): 1. Direct Reduction Order: This order allows a defendant to have their sentence reduced without the need for a hearing. The judge must consider the defendant’s prior criminal history, the nature of the offense, and any other relevant factors before issuing the order. 2. Motion to Reduce Sentence: This order requires the defendant to file a motion to reduce their sentence with the court. The judge will then hold a hearing to determine if the defendant is eligible for a sentence reduction. If the judge grants the motion, the defendant’s sentence will be reduced.
