UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Larry Charvell JONES, Defendant-Appellant, 313 F. App'x 654

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding-precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Larry Charvell Jones appeals a district court order granting in part and denying in party his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) (2006). The district court applied Amendment 706 of the Sentencing Guidelines to Jones’ total offense level and reduced Jones’ sentence. The court denied Jones’ request for a sentence below the amended Guidelines range of imprisonment. We affirm.

We find the district court did not abuse its discretion in granting Jones’ motion for a sentence reduction. United States v. Goines, 357 F.3d 469, 478 (4th Cir.2004) (stating standard of review). Insofar as Jones suggests the court could have considered an even lower sentence below the Guidelines sentencing range, this claim is foreclosed by United States v. Dunphy, 551 F.3d 247, 257 (4th Cir.2009) (“[A] district judge is not authorized to reduce a defendant’s sentence below the amended guideline range.”). Accordingly, we affirm the order granting Jones a sentence reduction.

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.
