UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 08-7679
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
ANTHONY ROBINSON,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Albert V. Bryan, Jr.,
Senior District Judge. (1:91-cr-00161-1)
Submitted: May 21, 2009 Decided: May 26, 2009
Before MOTZ, TRAXLER, and AGEE, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Anthony Robinson, Appellant Pro Se. Rebeca Hidalgo Bellows,
Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Anthony Robinson appeals the district court’s order
granting his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) (2006) motion. We find the
district did not abuse its discretion in granting Robinson’s
motion for a sentence reduction. United States v. Goines,
357
F.3d 469, 478 (4th Cir. 2004) (stating standard of review).
Insofar as Robinson suggests the court could have considered an
even lower sentence below the Guidelines sentencing range, this
claim is foreclosed by United States v. Dunphy,
551 F.3d 247,
256 (4th Cir. 2009), petition for cert. filed,
77 U.S.L.W. 3559
(U.S. Mar. 20, 2009) (“[A] district judge is not authorized to
reduce a defendant’s sentence below the amended guideline
range.”). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
district court. United States v. Robinson, No. 1:91-cv-00161-1
(E.D. Va. July 14, 2008). We dispense with oral argument
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
AFFIRMED
