ORDER

JAMES C. FOX, Senior District Judge.

Now before the court are Defendant Jermaine Donnell Kornegay's July 5, 2011, September 2, 2011, and April 17, 2013, filings [DE-76, DE-77, DE-89], in which Defendant asks the court to correct a clerical error in its May 5, 2009, order regarding motion for sentence reduction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) [DE-62], and to apply the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010 to his sentence.

The court has reviewed the order for re-sentencing, and finds that it contains no errors. Defendant's attorney correctly explains the re-sentencing calculation in her memorandum in support of motion to vacate under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. [DE-86 at 3-4.] Further, as Defendant was sentenced prior to the enactment of the Fair Sentencing Act, it is not retroactively applicable to him. United States v. Allen, ___ F.3d ___, 2013 WL 1777564, at *7 (4th Cir. Apr. 26, 2013) ("[T]he Fair Sentencing Act therefore applies to all sentences imposed after its enactment...."(emphasis added)).

For the foregoing reasons, it is ORDERED that DE-76, DE-77, and DE-89 are DENIED.

SO ORDERED.
