United States v. Robert Wilkerson

Opinion

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Robert Moses Wilkerson appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for sentence reduction based on Amendment 782 to the Sentencing Guidelines, as well as its order denying Wilkerson’s motion for reconsideration. We. have reviewed the record and *231 agree with the district court that Amendment 782 did not alter Wilkerson’s Guidelines range on his narcotics conviction. Thus, we affirm the district court’s order denying § 3582(c)(2) relief. See United States v. Wilkerson, No. 5:96-cr-00167-H-1 (E.D.N.C. Jan. 14, 2016).

In addition, the district court lacked authority to reconsider its order denying Wilkerson’s § 3582(c)(2) motion. See United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235-36 (4th Cir. 2010). Accordingly, we also affirm the district court’s order denying Wilkerson’s motion for reconsideration. See United States v. Wilkerson, No. 5:96-cr-00167-H-1 (E.D.N.C. Mar. 30, 2016). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid in the decisional process.
