Before WOLLMAN, COLLOTON, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                        ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Felix Herrera, Jr., challenges the district court’s1 order denying his “Motion for
Reduction of Sentence (Rule 35).” We construe the motion as a motion to correct
Herrera’s sentence filed under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 35(a). Cf. Fed. R.
Crim. P. 35(b) (upon government’s motion within 1 year of sentencing, court may
reduce sentence for defendant’s substantial assistance). We conclude that the district
court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion, as the sentence did not result

      1
        The Honorable Robert T. Dawson, United States District Judge for the Western
District of Arkansas.
“from arithmetical, technical, or other clear error.” See Fed. R. Crim. P. 35(a); United
States v. Peltier, 446 F.3d 911, 913 (8th Cir. 2006) (standard of review).

      Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
                      ______________________________
