Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Okang Kareen Rochelle appeals the district court’s orders denying his motion for a
sentence reduction, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012), and denying his motion to
alter or amend the judgment. We have reviewed the record and conclude that the district
court did not err in denying Rochelle’s § 3582(c)(2) motion. Accordingly, we affirm the
denial of § 3582(c)(2) relief for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v.
Rochelle, No. 1:05-cr-00112-WO-1 (M.D.N.C. Oct. 27, 2016). Because the district court
lacked jurisdiction to consider Rochelle’s motion to alter or amend the judgment, we affirm
the denial of that order. See United States v. Goodwyn, 596 F.3d 233, 234 (4th Cir. 2010)
(holding that district court lacks authority to grant motion to reconsider ruling on
§ 3582(c)(2) motion). 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
