UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
JAMES DARREN TAYLOR,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western
District of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Frank D. Whitney,
District Judge. (3:94-cr-00040-FDW-4)
Submitted: January 17, 2013 Decided: January 23, 2013
Before GREGORY, SHEDD, and KEENAN, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
James Darren Taylor, Appellant Pro Se. Amy Elizabeth Ray,
Assistant United States Attorney, Asheville, North Carolina, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
James Darren Taylor appeals the district court’s order
granting his motion for a sentence reduction filed pursuant to
18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006). We have reviewed the record and
conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion by
not considering the current statutory sentence for Taylor’s
offense. See United States v. Goines, 357 F.3d 469, 478 (4th
Cir. 2004) (motion under § 3582(c) “is subject to the discretion
of the district court”). Thus, 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 the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
