UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. THOMAS LEE ASHBY, JR., Defendant - Appellant.
Thomas Lee Ashby, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Brian R. Hood, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee
UNPUBLISHED
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, Senior District Judge.(3:00-cr-00146-REP-2) Before NIEMEYER, GREGORY, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Thomas Lee Ashby, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Brian R. Hood, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Thomas Lee Ashby appeals a district court order denying his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) (2006). The court denied the motion because the Guidelines amendments did not lower Ashby's Guidelines sentence. We conclude that the court did not abuse its discretion. United States v. Goines, 357 F.3d 469, 478 (4th Cir. 2004) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
