About This Course
The First Step Act, enacted in 2018, is considered by many to be the greatest criminal justice reform acts in recent memory. The Act resulted in changes to federal criminal law that could potentially offer your client significant relief through resentencing and early release.
This CLE course will provide a comprehensive overview of the First Step Act and its impact on the US sentencing guidelines. The course will also present motions that can be filed pursuant to the First Step Act and offer strategies for litigating these motions in court.
