No. 24-60629

U.S.S.G. § 3B1.1. See U.S.S.G. § 4C1.1(a)(10) (2023); see also United States v. Morales, 122 F.4th 590, 597 (5th Cir. 2024).

On appeal, Jones argues that the § 3B1.1 aggravating role increase was not justified and that this court erred in finding the error harmless on direct appeal because the district court has now denied him a § 4C1.1 reduction based upon it. Jones seeks resentencing on the issue of his role in the offense.

A proceeding under § 3582(c)(2) is not a full resentencing. United States v. Doublin, 572 F.3d 235, 238 (5th Cir. 2009). In determining whether a defendant is eligible for a § 3582(c)(2) reduction, a district court may only substitute the amended guideline provision for the corresponding provision applied at sentencing. See U.S.S.G. § 1B1.10(b)(1), p.s.; United States v. Jones, 796 F.3d 483, 486 (5th Cir. 2015). Accordingly, the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying relief under § 3582(c)(2). See United States v. Quintanilla, 868 F.3d 315, 319 (5th Cir. 2017).

AFFIRMED.
