Hughes v. United States

Proposition supported

A Rule 11(c)(1)(C) sentence is based on the guideline range for § 3582(c)(2) when the range was part of the framework the court relied on in imposing sentence or accepting the agreement.

Material limitation

The actual sentencing record may show that a range played no relevant part; Type-C status alone neither establishes nor defeats eligibility.
