UNPUBLISHED
Submitted: July 20, 2021
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Richmond. Henry E. Hudson, Senior District Judge. (3:07-cr-00380-HEH-1)
Tyzon L. Jones, Appellant Pro Se.
Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Tyzon L. Jones appeals the district court's order denying his motion for a reduction of his sentence pursuant to the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 404, 32 Stat. 5194, 5222. Because Jones was originally sentenced under 21 U.S.C. § 841(b)(1)(C), he was not convicted of a "covered offense" and, hence, is ineligible for relief under the First Step Act. See Terry v. United States, 141 S.Ct. 1858, 1862-63 (2021). Accordingly, we affirm. 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.
