Resentencing Integrity Act of 2024

HR 9100, the Resentencing Integrity Act of 2024, modifies federal sentencing guidelines to correct illegal prison terms. It requires courts to deduct the illegal portion of a sentence (up to 10 years per sentence) from both the individual term and the total sentencing range when a sentence was imposed in violation of law. This directly affects federal defendants whose sentences were legally flawed, allowing for more precise resentencing. The key mechanism is a mandatory deduction process that adjusts the sentence downward without exceeding a 10-year cap per illegal term. The bill focuses on procedural correction of sentencing errors, not new penalties.
