PER CURIAM:

Reginald Levi Avent appeals the district court’s order

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

reduction pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual, App. C. 

Amend. 782 (2015). We have reviewed the record and find no 

reversible error because Amendment 782 is not applicable to 

sentences, such as Avent’s sentence, derived from the career 

offender provisions in the Sentencing Guidelines. Accordingly, 

we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United 

States v. Avent, No. 2:99-cr-00011-RAJ-1 (E.D. Va. Feb. 27, 

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
