| 释义 |
The safety valve is a provision in the Sentencing Reform Act and the United States Federal Sentencing Guidelines that authorizes a sentence below the statutory minimum for certain nonviolent, non-managerial drug offenders with little or no criminal history.[1][2] A Senate version of the FIRST STEP Act proposes expanding the safety valve to include offenders with up to four criminal history points, excluding 1-point offenses, such as minor misdemeanors.[3] References1. ^18 U.S.C. § 3553(f) {{US-law-stub}}2. ^{{citation|title=U.S.S.G. §5C1.2|url=http://www.ussc.gov/guidelines-manual/2015/2015-chapter-5#5c12}} 3. ^https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/S.%203649%20-%20First%20Step%20Act%20Summary.pdf 1 : United States sentencing law |
