192689P.pdf 07/31/2020 United States v. Isaac Loggins, Jr.
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 19-2689
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Gruender and Grasz, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Sentencing. The district court did not err in denying
Loggins's motion for compassionate release; whether or not the district
court is constrained by the Sentencing Commission's relevant policy
statement, Guidelines Sec. 1B1.13, comment. (n.4), in determining whether
a movant qualifies for compassionate release, the record shows the
district court considered the other circumstances urged by Loggins and
found them insufficient to grant relief; the district court has broad
discretion in determining whether the proffered circumstances warrant a
sentence reduction and the court's denial of Loggins's request was a
reasonable exercise of that discretion.
