PER CURIAM:
Trini McDaniel appeals a district court order denying
his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)
(2006). The district court found McDaniel was not eligible for
a reduction because he was responsible for more than 4.5
kilograms of crack cocaine. We affirm.
We find the district did not abuse its discretion
denying McDaniel’s motion for a sentence reduction. United
States v. Goines, 357 F.3d 469, 478 (4th Cir. 2004) (stating
standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s order. We dispense with oral argument because the facts
and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
