Description:
Richmond, VA - Criminal defense lawyer represented defendant with a motion for reduction of sentence.
Perry Cousins appeals the district court’s order denying his motion seeking
reconsideration of its prior order granting in part and denying in part his motion for
reduction of sentence under § 404(b) of the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391,
132 Stat. 5194, 5222. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we grant Cousins’ motions to amend or correct informal brief and to amend
and clarify the record pertaining to the informal brief, treat those motions as supplemental
informal briefs, deny Cousins’ motion to appoint counsel, and affirm for the reasons stated
by the district court. United States v. Cousins, No. 4:10-cr-00047-RBS-TEM-1 (E.D. Va.
July 10, 2020). 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.
Outcome: AFFIRMED
