PER CURIAM:
Antione Boyce appeals from the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for reduction of sentence based on Amendment 782 to the
Sentencing Guidelines. Although Amendment 782 to the Guidelines lowered offense
levels applicable to drug offenses by two levels and is retroactively applicable, see U.S.
Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 1B1.10(d), p.s. (2016); USSG app. C, amend. 782, it
“does not have the effect of lowering [Boyce’s] applicable guideline range because of the
operation of another guideline or statutory provision.” USSG § 1B1.10, p.s., cmt. n.1(A).
Accordingly, Boyce was not entitled to a sentence reduction under § 3582(c)(2), and the
district court thus did not reversibly err in denying Boyce’s motion.

See USSG

§ 1B1.10(a)(2)(B), p.s.; United States v. Munn, 595 F.3d 183, 187 (4th Cir. 2010),
abrogation on other grounds recognized in United States v. Muldrow, 844 F.3d 434,
438-42 (4th Cir. 2016).
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s denial order. United States v. Boyce,
No. 1:07-cr-00383-CCB-3 (D. Md. Dec. 13, 2016). 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
