PER CURIAM: This case returns to us on remand after the Supreme Court granted Robert Mann's petition for certiorari, vacated our judgment in United States v. Mann, 373 Fed. Appx. 350 (4th Cir. 2010), and remanded for our consideration in light ofHenderson v. Shinseki, 562 U.S. ___ (2011). We previously held that 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c) deprives the district court of jurisdiction to grant a motion to reconsider the denial of a motion for a sentence reduction six months after denying the original motion.
