PER CURIAM:

Anthony Andrews appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his

(c)(2) motions for a sentence reduction. “We review a district court’s decision

[whether] to reduce a sentence under § 3582(c)(2) for abuse of discretion and its ruling as

to the scope of its legal authority under § 3582(c)(2) de novo.” United States v. Mann,

(4th Cir. 2013). Our review of the record reveals no error. The district court

clearly understood its authority to reduce Andrews’s sentence and recognized Andrews’s

postsentencing conduct, but the court declined to grant a reduction based on its review of

the

(a) factors.

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
