UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Case No.: 24cr613-CAB Plaintiff, ORDER ON MOTION FOR v. REDUCTION OF SENTENCE [DOC. NO. 169] DOLORES GARIBAY-ARROYO (2), Defendant.
Before the Court is defendant Dolores Garibay-Arroyo ’s third motion for reduction of her sentence this time asserting that proposed amendments to the United States Sentencing Guidelines (“USSG”) , lowered her offense level and guideline range. [1] [Doc. No. 169.] In support of her motion, defendant attaches pages from a January 2025 publication proposing modifications to the USSG Drug Quantity Table, §2D1.1(c), regarding methamphetamine quantities. [Doc. No. 169, Ex. 2.] The 2025 USSG Drug Quantity table that went into effect on November 1, 2025, however, remains unchanged from the 2024 USSG Drug Quantity Table applied at defendant’s sentencing. [Doc. No. 119, ¶43.]
*2 Case 3:24-cr-00613-CAB Document 170 Filed 11/14/25 PageID.589 Page 2 of 2 1 The Court previously denied defendant’s motion s for sentence reduction and the analysis remains unchanged. [Doc. Nos. 154, 160.] The defendant was sentenced on May 2, 2025, on two counts of Conspiracy to Distribute Controlled Substances and Possession of Cocaine with Intent to Distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 846. [Doc. No. 136.]
Defendant admitted in her plea agreement to possession of 40.51 kilograms of cocaine with the intent to distribute the controlled substance. [Doc. No. 97.] In calculating the defendant’s guidelines at sentencing, the defendant’s base offense level was determined to be 32 in accordance with USSG § 2D1.1 (c)(4) [at least 15 kilograms but less than 50 kilograms of cocaine]. [Doc. No. 128.] The base level for that quantity of cocaine is unchanged in the 2025 USSG Drug Quantity table that went into effect on November 1, 2025.
The defendant’s sentence of 27 months custody incorporated all the adjustments and variances the Court found appropriate at sentencing. As explained in the Court’s prior orders, there is no retroactive USSG amendment that reduces the defendant’s guidelines and supports her request further adjustment to her sentence.
The defendant’s motion to reduce her sentence is therefore DENIED .
IT IS SO ORDERED.
