PER CURIAM:
Gregory Douglas Smith appeals the district court’s order
denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for sentence reduction
based on Amendment 782 to the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual
(2014). We review a district court’s decision under
§ 3582(c)(2) for abuse of discretion, but conduct de novo review
of the court’s determination “as to the scope of its legal
authority.” United States v. Mann, 709 F.3d 301, 304 (4th Cir.
2013). We find no error in the district court’s conclusion that
Amendment 782 did not further reduce the Guidelines range
applicable to Smith’s narcotics conviction. Accordingly, we
affirm the district court’s order. See United States v. Smith,
No. 7:04–cr–00072–SGW-9 (W.D. Va. Jan. 4, 2016). 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
