United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 24-1281 ___________________________ United States of America lllllllllllllllllllllPlaintiff - Appellee v. Derrick Gene Golden lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the District of South Dakota - Northern ____________ Submitted: July 8, 2024 Filed: July 11, 2024 [Unpublished] ____________ Before SMITH, SHEPHERD, and ERICKSON, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM.

Derrick Golden appeals after the district court1 denied his motion seeking a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). 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 affirm. ______________________________
