PER CURIAM:

Tyrone Hall appeals the district court’s order denying his 

18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for a sentence reduction. 

Hall sought a reduction based on Amendment 782 to the Sentencing 

Guidelines, which reduced the offense levels applicable to drug 

offenses. U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual Suppl. to App’x C, 

Am. 782 (2015). However, because Hall was sentenced as a career 

offender (a Guidelines range from which the district court 

departed downward at sentencing), Amendment 782 did not lower 

his applicable Guidelines range, and he is therefore not 

eligible for a sentence reduction. Accordingly, we affirm the 

district court’s judgment. We dispense with oral argument 

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented 

in the materials before this court and argument would not aid 

the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
