UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
JOHN WALKER,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Newport News. Arenda Wright Allen,
District Judge. (4:09-cr-00059-AWA-JEB-1)
Submitted: August 22, 2013 Decided: August 27, 2013
Before MOTZ, DIAZ, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
John Walker, Appellant Pro Se. Robert Edward Bradenham, II,
Eric Matthew Hurt, Assistant United States Attorneys, Newport
News, Virginia; Gurney Wingate Grant, II, Assistant United
States Attorney, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
John Walker appeals the district court’s order denying
his motion for reconsideration of his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2)
(2006) motion for a sentence reduction. On appeal, we confine
our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See
4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Walker’s informal brief does not
challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, Walker
has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. In any
event, the district court properly concluded that it lacked
authority to consider Walker’s motion for reconsideration. See
United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 235-36 (4th Cir. 2010)
(holding that 18 U.S.C. § 3582 forbids ruling on motion to
reconsider § 3582(c)(2) sentence reduction order). Accordingly,
we affirm the district court’s judgment. 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
