United States v. McDowell

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
United States v. McDowell, 499 F. App'x 310 (4th Cir. 2012)

United States v. McDowell

Opinion of the Court

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Leon McDowell appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) motion for a reduction of his sentence based on Amendment 750 and Dorsey v. United States, — U.S. -, 132 S.Ct. 2321, 183 L.Ed.2d 250 (2012). McDowell was sentenced before the effective date of the Fair Sentencing Act. Therefore, the Act does not apply to his sentence. See Dorsey, 132 S.Ct. at 2335. 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.
