2 PER CURIAM:

Ryan Duane Dent appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion for reconsideration of its order granting his

18 U.S.C. § 3582

(c)(2) (2006) motion for a sentence reduction. *

Because the district court lacked authority to reconsider its

disposition of Dent’s § 3582(c)(2) motion, see United States v.

Goodwyn,

596 F.3d 233, 235-36

(4th Cir. 2010), we affirm the

district court’s order. See United States v. Dent, No. 5:09-cr-

00016-GEC-1 (W.D. Va. May 29, 2012). We deny Dent’s motion for

appointment of counsel. 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 in the

decisional process.

AFFIRMED

* Although the district court granted Dent’s § 3582(c)(2) motion, the reduction granted by the court did not reduce Dent’s sentence to the full extent he requested.
