PER CURIAM:
Johney Freeman appeals the district court’s orders denying
his motion for a sentence reduction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §
3582(c)(2) (2012), ruling on his two motions to reconsider, and
denying his motion to unseal documents. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. United States v. Freeman,
No. 2:88-cr-00076-AWA-2 (E.D. Va. Apr. 22, 2015; May 22, 2015;
June 5, 2015; June 8, 2015); see United States v. Mann, 709 F.3d
301, 304-05 (4th Cir. 2013) (reviewing the disposition of a
§ 3582(c)(2) motion for an abuse of discretion); United States
v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235-36 (4th Cir. 2010) (holding that
the district court does not have authority to reconsider a prior
order for a § 3582(c)(2) motion). Accordingly, we affirm the
district court’s denial of relief. 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
