PER CURIAM:

Anthony L. Olvis appeals the district court’s orders sua 

sponte granting Olvis a sentence reduction, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 

§ 3582(c)(2) (2012),* and denying as unauthorized Olvis’ motion 

for reconsideration of that order. We have reviewed the record 

and find no reversible error. Further, the district court properly 

recognized that it lacked the authority to entertain a motion for 

reconsideration in a § 3582(c)(2) proceeding. See United States 

v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235–36 (4th Cir. 2010). We therefore 

affirm the orders for the reasons stated by the district court. 

See United States v. Olvis, No. 4:95–cr–00038-RGD-1 (E.D Va. filed 

Dec. 9, 2014 & entered Dec. 10, 2014; filed Jan. 21, 2015 & entered 

Jan. 23, 2015). 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

 * Although the district court granted Olvis a two-level 

reduction pursuant to Guidelines Amendment 782, the court declined 

to further reduce Olvis’ sentence.
