OPINION AND ORDER

The defendant, Lisa Marie Casey, proceeding pro se, has filed a letter motion entitled "Motion for Immediate Relief." She again seeks compassionate release pursuant to § 603(b) of the First Step Act of 2018. The court earlier denied a similar motion. United States v. Casey, No. 1:06CR00071, 2019 WL 1987311 (W.D. Va. May 6, 2019). The defendant complains of lack of medical treatment while she has been incarcerated.1 She has been recently transferred from Alderson FPC, which facility she blames for failing to provide her adequate medical care, to Aliceville FCI.

Hopefully, the defendant will receive the treatment she says that she needs at her new institution. Absent that, she must first exhaust her administrative remedies under the First Step Act before seeking relief from this court.

For these reasons, the defendant's motion, ECF No. 232, is DENIED.

FootNotes

On October 29, 2018, the defendant was found to have violated the conditions of her supervised release, and she was sentenced to a term of 24 months imprisonment, which she is currently serving.
