US v. Higgins, No. 09-1515

Defendant's cocaine base conspiracy sentence is affirmed where the district court did not err in declining to further reduce defendant's sentence pursuant to Amendment 706 to the Sentencing Guidelines because U.S.S.G. section 1B1.10(b)(2)(B), the policy statement applicable to defendant, limited any reduction below the amended guidelines range to an amount comparable to the reduction from the original guidelines range.
