Beckett, also known as Kelesey Leroy Beckett lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________

Appeal from United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids ____________ Submitted: December 18, 2024 Filed: December 24, 2024 [Unpublished] ____________

Before LOKEN, SHEPHERD, and STRAS, Circuit Judges.

____________ PER CURIAM.

Kelsey Beckett appeals after the district court1 denied his motion seeking a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). His counsel has filed a motion to withdraw, and has filed a brief challenging the denial.

Upon careful review, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in finding that a reduction was not warranted. See United States v. Boyd, 819 F.3d 1054, 1056 (8th Cir. 2016) (per curiam) (district court’s decision whether to grant authorized § 3582(c)(2) motion is reviewed for an abuse of discretion).

Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw, and affirm.

1 The Honorable C.J. Williams, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Northern District of Iowa.
