Order [ECF 221, 223, 226, 227]

JENNIFER A. DORSEY, District Judge.

On April 7, 2015, I sentenced defendant Clifford Schuett to 75 months in prison after he plead guilty to one count of threatening to kill or cause damage by explosive.1 About five months later, he began filing motions requesting I modify his sentence in various ways: one motion, for example, requests that I help him get into the prison's Resident Drug and Alcohol Program2; another seeks a compassionate release so he can address some lingering medical issues.3

In none of these motions, however, does Mr. Schuett cite any legal authority under which I could grant him the relief he seeks. And under United States v. Aguilar-Reyes, I do not even have the power to modify Mr. Schuett's sentence at this point, because more than 14 days have passed since sentence was imposed. "`Within 14 days after sentencing, the court may correct a sentence that resulted from arithmetical, technical, or clear error.' This and other circuit courts have held that the [14-day] deadline is jurisdictional, thus divesting the district court of the power to amend the sentence after fourteen days."4

Apparently aware of this jurisdictional prohibition, Mr. Schuett has also filed a motion titled "Motion for an Order so the Petitioner Can be Returned to the Court's Jurisdiction."5 But in this motion, too, Mr. Schuett fails to cite any relevant legal authority; nor is there anything in Aguilar-Reyes or related cases to suggest that a district court can regain jurisdiction over a prisoner after the 14-day deadline. Accordingly, I deny all of Mr. Schuett's pending motions.

Conclusion

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT Defendant Clifford Schuett's Motion to Modify Sentence [ECF 221] is DENIED. IT IS FURTHERED ORDERED THAT
