UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 11-7644

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

v.

DERRICK JOHNSON, a/k/a Big D,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Columbia. Cameron McGowan Currie, District Judge. (3:08-cr-00155-CMC-1)

Submitted: February 16, 2012 Decided: February 23, 2012

Before SHEDD, KEENAN, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Derrick Johnson, Appellant Pro Se. Stacey Denise Haynes, Assistant United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Derrick Johnson appeals a district court order denying his

motion for a sentence reduction under

(c)

(2006). We affirm. Because the amendment in question did not

lower Johnson’s Guidelines sentence, we find the district did

not abuse its discretion denying the motion. United States v.

Goines,

(4th Cir. 2004) (stating standard of

review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. 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
