United States v. Hilaria Rodriguez

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 13-6149 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. HILARIA RODRIGUEZ, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. W. Earl Britt, Senior District Judge. (5:11-cr-00058-BR-1) Submitted: April 25, 2013 Decided: April 30, 2013 Before AGEE and WYNN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Hilaria Rodriguez, Appellant Pro Se. Jennifer P. May-Parker, Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Hilaria Rodriguez appeals the district court’s order denying her 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) motion for a reduction of sentence based on Dorsey v. United States, __ U.S. __, 132 S. Ct. 2321 (2012). Rodriguez was sentenced in December 2011, after passage of the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010 (“FSA”) and the amendments to the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual promulgated in response to the FSA. Thus, as the district court concluded, Dorsey is inapplicable in this case, and Rodriguez is not entitled to a reduction in her sentence. We therefore affirm the district court’s order for the reasons stated there. See United States v. Rodriguez, No. 5:11-cr-00058-BR-1 (E.D.N.C. Nov. 13, 2012). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
