FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 13-6681
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
CHESTER LEE BARNES, JR.,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Terrence W. Boyle,
District Judge. (5:07-cr-00351-BO-1)
Submitted: June 13, 2013 Decided: June 18, 2013
Before NIEMEYER, KING, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Chester Lee Barnes, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Jennifer P. May-
Parker, Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, North
Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Chester Lee Barnes appeals the district court’s order
denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) motion for reduction
in his sentence based on amendments to the U.S. Sentencing
Guidelines Manual. We conclude that the district court properly
determined that Barnes was ineligible for a sentence reduction
because his sentencing range was determined by his career
offender designation, not the drug quantities attributable to
him, and thus was not impacted by the amendments. United
States v. Munn, 595 F.3d 183, 187 (4th Cir. 2010). Accordingly,
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 this court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
