PER CURIAM:

     Lloyd Anthonie Williams appeals the district court’s order

denying   his   motion    to    reconsider     the   court’s     earlier    order

denying   his    “Petition     for     Resentencing,”      in   which   Williams

sought relief under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012).                      We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                   A district

court lacks authority to grant a motion to reconsider its ruling

on a § 3582(c)(2) motion.            United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d

233, 234 (4th Cir. 2010).

        Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order denying

Williams’ motion.        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

                                         2
