United States v. Antoinne Goodloe
Opinion
In 2008, Antoinne Goodloe pleaded guilty to a crack-related offense. See 21 U.S.C. § 846. He received a 121-month sentence, one month above the then-applicable mandatory minimum. After the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010 lowered that minimum to sixty months, Goodloe moved for a sentence reduction. See 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). The district court obliged him one month, but refused to apply the new minimum retroactively. That refusal, Goodloe now argues, violates both the Act and the Constitution. But United States v. Blewett, 746 F.3d 647, 650 (6th Cir. 2013) (en banc), holds otherwise. Because the old minimum still applies to his case, Good-loe received the. maximum reduction the law permits.
For these reasons, we affirm.
