PER CURIAM:

Donald Caston appeals the district court’s orders denying 

Caston a sentence reduction, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) 

(2012), and denying as unauthorized Caston’s 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. Caston, No. 3:06–cr–00190-

REP-1 (E.D Va. May 7, 2015 & June 9, 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
