Appeal from the United States District Court

(November 10, 2016)

Before HULL, WILSON and WILLIAM PRYOR, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: 

USCA11 Case: 16-11615 Date Filed: 11/10/2016 Page: 1 of 2

Corey Lemar Wright appeals pro se the denial of his third motion to reduce 

his sentence. 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). Wright moved for a reduction based on 

Amendment 782 of the Sentencing Guidelines. We affirm.

The district court did not err by denying Wright’s motion. Wright pleaded 

guilty to possessing with intent to distribute cocaine base, see 21 U.S.C.

§ 841(a)(1), (a)(2), and the district court sentenced him to five years of 

imprisonment. Because Wright’s sentence was based on the statutory mandatory 

minimum, see United States Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 5G1.1(b), not on the 

drug quantity tables, see id. § 2D1.1, he was ineligible for a reduction of his 

sentence under Amendment 782, see id. § 1B1.10 cmt n.1(A). The district court 

lacked authority to reduce Wright’s sentence.

We AFFIRM the denial of Wright’s motion to reduce.
