PER CURIAM:

Daniel Fountain appeals the district court’s order denying 

his motion to reconsider the district court’s denial of his 18 

U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion. Because the district court 

lacked jurisdiction to consider Fountain’s motion for 

reconsideration, we affirm the denial of relief. See United 

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

that district court lacks authority to grant motion to 

reconsider ruling on § 3582(c)(2) motion). We grant Fountain’s 

motion to proceed in forma pauperis, and 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
