PER CURIAM:
Victoria Finney Brewton appeals the district court’s order denying relief on her 18
U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion for a sentence reduction pursuant to Amendment 794
to the Sentencing Guidelines. The district court determined that Brewton was not entitled
to relief because Amendment 794 is not retroactive. We have reviewed the record and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we grant Brewton leave to proceed in forma pauperis
and affirm for the reasons stated by the district court in its text order. United States v.
Brewton, No. 3:12-cr-00399-FDW-1 (W.D.N.C. Oct 21, 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
