United States v. Lelio Delva

544 F. App'x 905

Opinion

PE.R CURIAM:

Lelio Delva appeals the denial of his motion to reduce his sentence. See 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Delva sought a reduction under Amendment 750 to the Sen tencing Guidelines and the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010. We affirm.

Delva’s arguments are foreclosed by our precedent. We have held that defendants, like Delva, whose sentences are based on the mandatory minimum guideline, see United States Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 5Gl.l(b); 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(A), not on the drug quantity tables, see U.S.S.G. § 2D1.1, are ineligible for a reduction of their sentence under Amendment 750. See United States v. Mills, 613 F.3d 1070, 1074-79 (11th Cir.2010); United States v. Williams, 549 F.3d 1337, 1340 (11th Cir.2008). Delva also cannot obtain relief under the Fair Sentencing Act. The Act “is not a guidelines amendment by the Sentencing Commission ... [that can] serve as a basis for a ... sentence reduction,” and does not apply to Delva because he was sentenced before the Act became effective on August 3, 2010. See United States v. Hippolyte, 712 F.3d 535, 542 (11th Cir.2013); United States v. Berry, 701 F.3d 374, 376-78 (11th Cir.2012).

We AFFIRM the denial of Delva’s motion to reduce his sentence.
