PER CURIAM:

Savino Braxton appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. 

§ 3582(c)(1)(B) (2012) motion for relief under Section 401 of the First Step Act of 2018, 

Pub. L. No. 115-391, 132 Stat. 5194. Because Braxton was sentenced before the enactment 

of the First Step Act, we conclude that he was not eligible for a sentence reduction. See 

First Step Act § 401(c), 132 Stat. at 5221. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s 

judgment. 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
