    Thomas John Majeed appealed a district court order denying his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c). The Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court's order, finding that the sentencing amendment Majeed relied upon did not lower his guidelines sentence. As the amendment did not lower Majeed's applicable guidelines range, the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. The Fourth Circuit also denied Majeed's motion for a stay pending appeal.
