The Court held that a defendant facing a mandatory minimum sentence is eligible for safety-valve relief under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(f)(1) only if he satisfies each of the provision's three conditions - he does not have more than four criminal-history points, does not have a prior three-point offense, and does not have a prior two-point violent offense. The Court rejected the defendant's argument that he only needed to lack the combination of all three characteristics to be eligible for relief.
