PER CURIAM:
Donovan Robert Bradley appeals the district court’s
order granting his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) motion for a
sentence reduction. We review an order granting or denying a
§ 3582 motion for a sentence reduction for abuse of
discretion. See United States v. Munn, 595 F.3d 183, 186 (4th
Cir. 2010) (citing United States v. Goines, 357 F.3d 469, 478
(4th Cir. 2004)). “A district court abuses its discretion if it
. . . bases its exercise of discretion on an erroneous factual
or legal premise.” DIRECTV, Inc. v. Rawlins, 523 F.3d 318, 323
(4th Cir. 2008) (citing James v. Jacobson, 6 F.3d 233, 239 (4th
Cir. 1993)). We have thoroughly reviewed the record and
conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in
reducing Bradley’s sentence. 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 in the
decisional process.
AFFIRMED
