No. 16-7162

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

v.

ALTON B. COUTHER, III,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Norfolk. Raymond A. Jackson, District Judge. (2:12-cr-00187-RAJ-TEM-1)

Submitted: February 15, 2017 Decided: February 22, 2017

Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, and AGEE and THACKER, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Alton B. Couther, III, Appellant Pro Se. V. Kathleen Dougherty, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Alton B. Couther, III, appeals the district court’s denial

of his motion seeking reconsideration of the district court’s

order reducing Couther’s sentence and requesting a further

reduction under

18 U.S.C. § 3582

(c)(2) (2012). District courts

lack jurisdiction to reconsider orders acting on § 3582(c)

motions. See United States v. Goodwyn,

596 F.3d 233, 235-36

(4th Cir. 2010). 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

AFFIRMED
