United States v. Luis Berny-Estrada
United States v. Luis Berny-Estrada
Opinion
Luis Berny-Estrada, federal prisoner # 53849-177, was convicted of illegal reentry and was sentenced to 37 months of imprisonment and three years of supervised release. He appeals the denial of his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for a sentence reduction pursuant to Sentencing Guidelines Amendment 802. He also argues that his original guidelines range was incorrectly calculated.
*316 Amendment 802 is not listed in U.S.S.G. § 1B1.10(d). See U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual, Supp. to App. C, Amendment 802, pp. 146-59 (2016); § 1B1.10(d). Accordingly, the district court was not authorized to reduce Berny-Estrada’s sentence pursuant to Amendment 802, and the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying his § 3582(c)(2) motion. See Dillon v. United States, 560 U.S. 817, 826, 130 S.Ct. 2683, 177 L.Ed.2d 271 (2010); United States v. Evans, 587 F.3d 667, 672 (5th Cir. 2009). Berny-Estrada’s challenges to the correctness of his original sentence are not cognizable under § 3582(c)(2). See Dillon, 560 U.S. at 831, 130 S.Ct. 2683.
The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be *316 published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
