Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Florida
_________________________
(February 4, 2009)
Before TJOFLAT, DUBINA and BARKETT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Charles Brown, a federal prisoner convicted of a crack cocaine offense, pro
se appeals the district court’s denial of his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for a
sentence reduction based on an amendment to the Sentencing Guidelines that
lowered the base offense levels applicable to crack cocaine. The district court
denied Brown’s § 3582(c)(2) motion because the sentencing court based Brown’s
sentence on a statutory mandatory term of life imprisonment and not according to
the base level in § 2D1.1. Therefore, Brown was not entitled to a sentence
reduction under the crack cocaine amendments. United States v. Williams, No. 08-
12475, manuscript op. (11th Cir. Nov. 26, 2008).
AFFIRMED
