Before KELLY, STRAS, and KOBES, Circuit Judges.
                           ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Paul Bradshaw appeals the district court’s1 order denying his motion for a
sentence reduction under Section 404 of the First Step Act. Following careful review,

      1
       The Honorable Peter D. Welte, Chief Judge, United States District Court for
the District of North Dakota.
see United States v. McDonald, 944 F.3d 769, 771 (8th Cir. 2019) (individual’s
eligibility for reduced sentence under First Step Act is reviewed de novo), we agree
with the district court that Bradshaw, who was sentenced to 200 months in prison
under 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(C), was ineligible for the relief he sought, see Terry v.
United States, 141 S. Ct. 1858, 1862-63 (2021) (because Fair Sentencing Act did not
modify statutory penalties for § 841(b)(1)(C), conviction under that section is not a
“covered offense” for purposes of First Step Act sentence-reduction eligibility). The
judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
