ORDER

BEFORE THE COURT is correspondence from Defendant challenging application of USSG § 2D1.1(b)(1) (dangerous weapon) to his guidelines calculation (Dkt. 129). Since the construed motion collaterally attacks his sentence, the motion is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction. The proper vehicle for collaterally attacking his sentence is by motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Defendant has already filed a § 2255 motion, which was dismissed as time barred (see Case No. 8:14-cv-1482-T-27TGW, Dkt. 87). And the Eleventh Circuit denied his application to file a successive motion (Dkt. 122). To the extent, therefore, he seeks collateral relief, he must obtain authorization to file a successive §2255 motion from the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals.1

DONE AND ORDERED.

FootNotes


1. Defendant's motion for sentence reduction under the First Step Act (Dkt. 127) remains pending.
