STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER REDUCING AND MODIFYING DEFENDANT'S SENTENCE TO CREDIT FOR TIME SERVED
RONALD M. WHYTE, District Judge.
STIPULATION
The parties, by and through their respective counsel, hereby stipulate, subject to the Court's approval, that based upon the defendant's substantial assistance to government authorities, her sentence in the above-entitled case shall be reduced and modified to credit for time served.
On November 1, 2010, this Court sentenced the defendant to a term of 60 months of imprisonment at the Bureau of Prisons. On March 13, 2013, the defendant's former drug source, Jose Alfredo Borrayo, entered a guilty plea in Case No. 10-00538-LHK to conspiracy to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846 and 841(b)(1)(A)(viii). Ms. Gonzalez's assistance and willingness to testify on behalf of the government against Mr. Borrayo were communicated to Mr. Borrayo and directly contributed to his guilty plea. The defendant's current release date from the Bureau of Prisons is July 3, 2014. The United States Marshal's Office has indicated that it will require approximately two weeks for them to transport the defendant from her current Bureau of Prisons facility in Dublin, CA to this court for purposes of re-sentencing. If the defendant's personal appearance is required in order for the court to reduce her sentence, the defendant will therefore have to serve an additional two weeks of the time she has remaining to serve.
Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 35(b) that the Court may (without requiring that the defendant personally appear before it) and shall reduce and modify the defendant's sentence to a term of credit for time served, with no further time in custody remaining to be served.
