Both Burkett and Dallmeyer had previously pleaded guilty to racketeering aggravated assault charges for their role in the beating of an Aryan Brother of Texas prospective member in September 2008.
According to court documents, Burkett, Dallmeyer and 10 others beat a prospective member at a gang leader's home because he had violated rules of conduct.
Eleven of the 12 co-defendants have pleaded guilty for their roles in the assault. The 12th co-defendant, David Harlow, was found guilty in March.
