Gregory Allen Bonnie v. Dunbar, Warden

In Section 3632(d)(4)(D) of the First Step Act, Congress provided prisoners the ability to earn time credits for participating in certain recidivism-reduction programs. Under the Act, a prisoner is eligible to earn such credits unless the prisoner “is serving a sentence for a conviction” under specified statutes. Petitioner is serving a 120-month sentence for credit-eligible drug offenses and a separate, consecutive 24-month sentence imposed in a separate judgment for a creditineligible offense. The question presented is: Whether Section 3632(d)(4)(D) bars a prisoner from earning any First Step Act time credits while serving a credit-eligible sentence because the prisoner also has a separate, consecutive credit-ineligible sentence imposed in a separate judgment.
