DO NOT PUBLISH

PER CURIAM.

Joan Marie Price appeals her conviction for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), (b)(1)(C), 846. On appeal, Price argues that the district court abused its discretion in denying her motions for substitution of counsel and to continue her sentencing hearing. As an initial matter, although Price argues that we should apply caselaw relevant to the denial of a motion to substitute counsel, the relevant caselaw for this appeal relates to the denial of a motion for continuance. The motion filed by Price was captioned as a motion to continue, did not explicitly request the substitution of counsel, and was ruled on by the district court as a motion for a continuance.

We review the denial of a motion to continue sentencing for an abuse of discretion. United States v. Edouard, 485 F.3d 1324, 1350 (11th Cir. 2007). The defendant carries the burden to demonstrate that the denial of her motion was an abuse of discretion that resulted in specific and substantial prejudice. Id. We look at the specific circumstances presented, focusing on the reasons provided for the request for a continuance. Id.

The Sixth Amendment right to counsel includes the right to counsel of the defendant's choice, but this right is not absolute. United States v. Campbell, 491 F.3d 1306, 1310 (11th Cir. 2007). Instead, a defendant is only guaranteed "a fair or reasonable opportunity" to select the attorney of her choice. United States v. Bowe, 221 F.3d 1183, 1190 (11th Cir. 2000). Courts balance the defendant's right to counsel of choice with "the general interest in the prompt and efficient administration of justice." Id. In determining whether a denial of continuance deprives a defendant of a "fair and reasonable opportunity" to choose counsel, we have considered the following factors:

Id.

Price's argument that the district court abused its discretion by denying her motion for a continuance is not persuasive. On balance, the relevant factors weigh against granting a continuance. In particular, the potential length of delay, the fact that Price's court-appointed counsel was ready to proceed, and the fact that Price did not state with any particularity why she needed new counsel all weigh against the grant of a continuance. Bowe, 221 F.3d at 1190. In addition, Price has not established that the court's decision caused her any specific prejudice. Edouard, 485 F.3d at 1350. Although Price argues that the government withdrew its motion for a reduction in her sentence based on the request for a continuance and her desire for new counsel, the record demonstrates that the government withdrew its motion because Price repeatedly minimized her role in the offense and, therefore, would not be a credible witness in proceedings against others. Thus, while Price was prejudiced from the government's withdrawal of its motion, that prejudice was not caused by the denial of her motion for a continuance. Accordingly, we affirm the decision of the district court.

AFFIRMED.
