MEMORANDUM **

Bruce Dwight Sutton appeals from the district court’s order granting his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for reduction of sentence. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Sutton contends that he is entitled to a further reduction of sentence based on the *669Fair Sentencing Act of 2010 (“FSA”) and subsequent amendments to the Sentencing Guidelines that lowered the Guidelines ranges for crack cocaine offenses. We review de novo whether the district court had authority to modify a defendant’s sentence under section 3582(c)(2). See United States v. Austin, 676 F.3d 924, 926 (9th Cir. 2012).

The district court granted Sutton’s motion and reduced his sentence to 120 months, the statutory mandatory minimum at the time of sentencing. See 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(A) (2008). Because the FSA’s reduced mandatory mínimums do not apply to defendants sentenced before its effective date, a reduction in Sutton’s sentence below 120 months would not be consistent with the policy statements issued by the Sentencing Commission, and the district court properly declined to further modify Sutton’s sentence. See 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2); U.S.S.G. § 1B1.10 cmt. n. 1(A); United States v. Augustine, 712 F.3d 1290, 1295 (9th Cir. 2013).

AFFIRMED.
