                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Southern District of Florida
                          ________________________
                                (February 21, 2013)

Before TJOFLAT, PRYOR and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

      James MacArthur, who is represented by counsel, appeals the district court’s

denial of his pro se motion challenging the order of restitution entered in his
criminal case following his conviction for conspiracy to commit mail and wire

fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1349.

       On appeal, MacArthur argues that the district court erred in denying his

motion to correct the restitution judgment without a hearing. He asserts that the

district court had inherent jurisdiction or retained jurisdiction to alter the restitution

order. He further asserts that the restitution order should credit the amount that the

government had recovered from a codefendant and as part of its ongoing litigation.

Further, the restitution order should have credited against the loss amount the value

of property that some of the victims of the fraud had actually received. Finally, he

argues that whether the restitution order should be reduced to reflect any tax

deductions victims may have been able to take related to their losses is a factual

matter that could only be addressed at a hearing.1

       We review de novo whether a district court has jurisdiction. See United

States v. Stossel, 

, 1321-22 (11th Cir. 2003) (reviewing whether a

district court had jurisdiction, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(b)(3), to consider a

defendant’s motion to modify his sentence).

       The Mandatory Victim Restitution Act of 1996 (“MVRA”) obligates the

district court to order restitution in certain cases, including fraud cases. See 18


       1
               MacArthur has conceded on appeal that his argument that his restitution order
should be reduced due to his substantial assistance is without merit, and thus, we do not address
this argument.
                                                2
U.S.C. § 3663A(c)(1)(A)(ii); United States v. Dickerson, 

, 1335-36

(11th Cir. 2004). The MVRA sets forth the procedures for ordering restitution, as

well as for challenging an otherwise final order of restitution. 18 U.S.C.

§ 3664(o)(1) provides that an otherwise final order of restitution can be

(1) corrected under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure Rule 35; (2) appealed and

modified under 18 U.S.C. § 3742; (3) amended under 18 U.S.C. § 3664(d)(5); or

(4) adjusted under 18 U.S.C. §§ 3664(k), 3572, or 3613A. We have held that a

defendant cannot challenge a restitution order pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255.

Mamone v. United States, 

, 1211 (11th Cir. 2009). We have further

held that the district court does not have the inherent authority to modify a

sentence outside of the specific parameters provided by statute and the Federal

Rules of Criminal Procedure. See United States v. Diaz-Clark, 

,

1315, 1317-18 (11th Cir. 2002) (citing Carlisle v. United States, 

,

426, 

, 1466, 

 (1996) (providing that, whatever the

scope of a district court’s inherent power, it does not include the power to develop

rules that circumvent or conflict with the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure or

statutory provisions)).

      Although MacArthur asserts that the district court had jurisdiction to

consider his arguments, MacArthur does not argue the applicability of any of the

procedures set forth in § 3664(o) for challenging an otherwise final restitution


                                          3
order or cite to any other statutory provision concerning a court’s power to modify

a restitution order under the circumstances at issue here. Rather, he argues that the

district court had inherent or retained jurisdiction to modify the restitution order.

However, in the absence of statutory authorization to modify MacArthur’s

restitution order, the district court lacked jurisdiction to modify the order. See id.

at 1315, 1318.

      Accordingly, we vacate and remand for the district court to dismiss for lack

of jurisdiction. See Stossel, 348 F.3d at 1322 (vacating and remanding for the

district court to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction because the district court lacked

jurisdiction under § 3582(b)(3) to consider the defendant’s motion to modify his

sentence).

      VACATED and REMANDED.
