No. 11-6194

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. TERENCE JEROME RICHARDSON, Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, Senior District Judge. (3:00-cr-00383-REP-1)

Submitted: May 26, 2011 Decided: June 1, 2011

Before KING, SHEDD, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Terence Jerome Richardson, Appellant Pro Se. David Novak, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellant.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Terence Jerome Richardson appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for reconsideration of the denial of his motion for reduction of sentence pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006). Because the district court lacked the authority to consider Richardson’s motion for reconsideration, see United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235-36 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 130 S. Ct. 3530 (2010), we affirm the district court’s order denying the motion. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
