ORDER

UPON FURTHER REFLECTION, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that Defendant's pro se Motion for Sentence Reduction filed pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (Dkt. 47) is denied without prejudice. See United States v. Berry, 701 F.3d 374, 377 (11th Cir. 2012) (stating that "[t]he problem for [Defendant] is the [the Fair Sentencing Act] is not a guidelines amendment by the Sentencing Commission, but rather a statutory change by Congress, and thus it does not serve as a basis for a § 3582(c)(2) sentence reduction in [Defendant's] case."). The Government's Motion for Extension of Time (Dkt. 49) is denied as moot. Additionally, the Government is relieved of the responsibility to respond to the motion.

DONE AND ORDERED.
