SAL PENA
Case No. 16-CV-6373
Hon. Samuel
Der-Yeghiayan
PENA’S MOTION FOR JUDGMENT
On January 6, 2017, the government filed its answer to Pena’s motion
for relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. The government has agreed that Pena
should not have been sentenced as an armed career criminal and has
requested that he be promptly resentenced.
Pena has now served more than the 10-year maximum sentence that
could have been imposed on him. He requests that he be sentenced to 10
years in prison and no more than three years of supervised release. He is
willing to be sentenced without being returned to Court, so that he can be
released as soon as possible. Counsel attaches Pena’s signed consent to
resentencing in his absence.
1
Wherefore, it is respectfully requested that this Honorable
Court grant relief in this case and promptly resentence Pena in his criminal
case.
Dated this January 9, 2017, at Chicago, Illinois.
Respectfully submitted,
