August 20, 2010 - United States District Court in Alabama Reduced Sentence as a Result of Sentencing Appeal

August 20, 2010. United States District Judge Hopkins in Huntsville, Alabama reduced client Kim Curtiss Danner's guideline sentence from 77 months to 27 months (a 924(c) minimum mandatory five year sentence was not changed).  This 50 month reduction in sentence came about as the result of a successful sentencing appeal Mr. Kent did for Mr. Danner.  Mr. Kent represented Danner at the resentencing as well.  At resentencing the Government sought a sentence of 57 months.  The District Judge also reduced Mr. Danner's term of supervised release and reduced his fine as well and waived interest on the fine.
