United States v. Norwood, No. 24-1987 (3d Cir.)
All Rise Trial & Appellate filed an amicus brief in support of a petition for initial en banc, which presents the question of whether courts should accept the U.S. Sentencing Commission’s resolution of a circuit split on the question of whether non-retroactive sentencing reforms can amount to extraordinary and compelling circumstances supporting compassionate release. The brief addresses the United States’ shifting litigation positions on the question at issue, and calls for en banc resolution.
