UNPUBLISHED

PER CURIAM:

Shakir Aasim Venson 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 granting Venson’s motion for a sentence reduction. United States v. Goines, 357 F.3d 469, 478 (4th Cir.2004) (stating standard of review). Insofar as Venson 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, 257 (4th Cir.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. Venson, No. 3:97-cr-00073-1 (S.D.W.Va. Aug. 15, 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.
