United States v. Carl Linyard
Opinion
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
Carl L. Linyard appeals the district court’s orders denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for a sentence reduction under Sentencing Guidelines Amendments 750 and 759 and his motion to reconsider that denial. * We review these orders for an abuse of discretion. United States v. Muldrow, 844 F.3d 434, 437 (4th Cir. 2016). Our review of the record reveals no such abuse. As the district court noted, Linyard has filed previous unsuccessful motions asserting the same grounds. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. 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
The nonjurisdictional limit on motions to reconsider rulings on § 3582(c)(2) motions, United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235-36 (4th Cir. 2010), is waived in the absence of a Government motion invoking the limitation, United States v. May, 855 F.3d 271, 274 (4th Cir. 2017), cert. denied, - U.S.L.W. -, 138 S.Ct. 252, 199 L.Ed.2d 124, No. 17-142, 2017 WL 3219499 (U.S. Oct. 2, 2017).
