Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Lamont Delmar Parker appeals the district court's order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for a sentence reduction based on the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010 ("FSA"), which changed the statutory minimum sentences for crack offenses, and the attendant Sentencing Guidelines amendments. In denying relief on Parker's motion, the district court found that Amendment 750 had no effect on Parker's Guidelines range because he received a career offender sentence in October 2009. We affirm.
The district court properly concluded that it lacked authority to grant a sentence reduction under § 3582(c)(2) because Parker's Guidelines range was driven by his career offender designation and not the crack cocaine Guidelines provisions. See United States v. Munn, 595 F.3d 183, 187 (4th Cir.2010); see also United States v. Bullard, 645 F.3d 237, 248 (4th Cir.2011) (holding that the FSA does not apply retroactively to defendants sentenced prior to its August 3, 2010 effective date). Furthermore, our recent decision in United States v. Black, 737 F.3d 280, 287 (4th Cir.2013), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 134 S.Ct. 1902, 188 L.Ed.2d 932 (2014), forecloses Parker's claim that the FSA's amendments to the relevant statutory scheme should be applied in his § 3582(c)(2) proceeding.
Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. See United States v. Parker, No. 5:09-er-00021-BR-1 (E.D.N.C. Feb. 14, 2014). 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.
