United States v. Armstrong
Citation: 332 F. App'x 889Docket: No. 09-6131
Court: Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit; June 26, 2009; Federal Appellate Court
Everett Darnell Armstrong's appeal of the district court’s order denying his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) has been affirmed. The court found no reversible error in the lower court's ruling. Armstrong's claim regarding the attribution of only 1.5 kilograms of cocaine base was refuted by the criminal judgment, which indicated that the district court accepted the factual findings of the presentence investigation report. The appeal was affirmed based on the district court's reasoning. Additionally, Armstrong's requests for government-funded transcript preparation and for appointment of counsel were denied. The court determined that oral argument was unnecessary as the relevant facts and legal issues were sufficiently detailed in the submitted materials.
