PER CURIAM:
Jermal Daniels appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for a sentence reduction under Amendment 782. We have
reviewed the record and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in
declining to grant a reduction in Daniels’ sentence. See United States v. Mann, 709 F.3d
301, 304 (4th Cir. 2013) (providing review standard); see also Dillon v. United States,
560 U.S. 817, 825-27 (2010) (explaining that § 3582(c)(2) proceeding is not full
resentencing); United States v. Smalls, 720 F.3d 193, 195-96 (4th Cir. 2013) (recognizing
that district court is presumed, absent contrary indication, to have considered relevant
factors when ruling on § 3582(c)(2) motion). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
order. United States v. Daniels, No. 3:05-cr-00103-RJC-DCK-2 (W.D.N.C. Oct. 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
