   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-3173
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kobes, Author, with Gruender and Wollman, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Sentencing. The district court understood its authority 
   and discretion under the First Step Act; a district court may, but need 
   not, consider the 3553(a) factors in deciding a First Step sentence 
   modification; the court met its obligation to conduct a complete review of 
   the First Step motion by considering the motion and stating a reasoned 
   basis for its decision; there is neither a constitutional nor statutory 
   right to counsel in First Step proceedings; the district court did not 
   abuse its discretion by declining to appoint counsel.
