PER CURIAM:
Alton B. Couther, III, appeals the district court’s denial
of his motion seeking reconsideration of the district court’s
order reducing Couther’s sentence and requesting a further
reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012). District courts
lack jurisdiction to reconsider orders acting on § 3582(c)
motions. See United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235-36
(4th Cir. 2010). 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
