PER CURIAM:
Charron
Butts
appeals
the
district
court’s
order
denying relief on his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) motion, in
which Butts sought the benefit of Amendment 715 of the U.S.
Sentencing Guidelines. *
We affirm, but for a reason other than
that of the district court.
See Cochran v. Morris, 73 F.3d
1310, 1315 (4th Cir. 1996).
Butts
pled
guilty
to
possession
with
intent
to
distribute 182.39 grams of cocaine base and a related firearm
offense.
involves
Amendment
cocaine
substances.
715
base
applies
and
one
solely
or
when
more
a
drug
other
offense
controlled
Accordingly, because Butts’ offense involved only
cocaine base, Amendment 715 is inapplicable.
Accordingly, the
denial of Butts’ § 3582(c)(2) motion was proper.
We therefore affirm.
We dispense with oral argument
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
in the materials before this court and argument would not aid
the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
*
The district court incorrectly stated that Butts sought
relief under Amendment 750 of the Guidelines.
